Bryan Berghoef


Pastor and Founder


Bryan Berghoef is a pastor, writer, and pub theologian
, and author of the book, Pub Theology: Beer, Conversation, and God. He insists that good things happen when we sit around the table together and talk about things that matter, and what better setting than at the pub, over a pint? Bryan has been facilitating pub conversations since 2008. Bryan values bringing contemplative practices into the life of the community, and is pilgrimage leader with Shalem Institute for Spiritual Formation.

Bryan and his wife, Christy, live with their four kids in Holland, MI. They have also led communities in Washington, DC and Traverse City, MI. They both sense that community is at its best where all feel welcome, where love of neighbor is extended and received, and simplicity and depth are at the core.
