The Naked Journal

Thoughts, musings, and meanings behind new NakedPastor art.

I'm David, aka NakedPastor. I've been blogging about spirituality, deconstruction and religious freedom since 2006.

I'm an ex-pastor turned full-time artist. You can check out my cartoons, paintings, and merch in the NakedPastor Shop.
