Rev. Christopher Miller
Father | Husband | Pastor
Welcome
Thanks for visiting Preaching Panda, my online home. My name is Rev. Chris Miller and I serve as the Senior Pastor of Pine Ridge Presbyterian Church in Kansas City, MO where I live with my amazing wife Mary Erin and our three kids. Prior to moving to Kansas City, I served for seven years as the Pastor at Trinity Presbyterian Church in Springfield, MO, and before then as the Associate Pastor of Groomsport Presbyterian Church in Groomsport, Northern Ireland. I am a graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary, where I served as a pastoral intern at Thompson Memorial Presbyterian Church, in New Hope, PA and as an intern chaplain at St. Mary Medical Center. Before seminary I worked as a high school debate coach, summer camp counselor, semi-pro photographer, and all-around tech guy for several organizations. Mary Erin trained as a special education teacher and worked for schools in Missouri, New Jersey, and Northern Ireland before the birth of our kids. She now is focused on raising our son and daughters, while they are focused on being adorable.
Some Sermons from the Preaching Panda
Some Reflections from the Preaching Panda
Nobody fully understands the Trinity. And we all reach for crosses, paintings, and works of beauty — not because we're idolaters, but because mystery doesn't fit in your hand. This summer, the board outside our church office is collecting questions about God, faith, and everything in between. These are the first two. They turned out to have a lot more in common than I first thought.
