I’m Ben Bergren, lead pastor of Community Lutheran Church of Las Vegas — a congregation built around a simple conviction: that the grace of Jesus is for everybody. Not just the people who have it together. Not just the people who grew up in church. Everybody.
I’ve been preaching and teaching the Bible for almost thirty years, and I’m still convinced that the best theology is plain-spoken theology. No jargon. No gatekeeping. Just scripture, grace, and real life.
My writing and preaching home is here at Radical Grace for Real People — where I explore what it means to follow Jesus in the middle of an ordinary, complicated, beautiful life.
My wife Rachel and I have been married for over twenty years. Between us we have three adult children: Molly, Carl, and Max.
God bless,
Pr. Ben
