Episcopal Priest Flourish Klink Claims Jesus Is Trans, God Nonbinary
The sermon, later clipped on X, drew criticism as a personal theological view rather than official Episcopal Church doctrine.
- On Wednesday, footage of a March 21, 2026 sermon by Rev. Flourish Klink resurfaced online, sparking debate after the New York Episcopal priest claimed Jesus 'transitioned' at the Resurrection, describing the risen Christ as 'beyond male or female'.
- Klink delivered the remarks during the Celebration of Trans Joy and Resilience at the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, an event organized by the Episcopal Diocese of New York ahead of Transgender Day of Visibility.
- In the sermon, Klink told the congregation, 'God is trans,' and argued that Mary assigned Jesus a male identity at birth, though his divine nature transcended human gender categories.
- Townhall managing editor Matt Vespa criticized the sermon as 'grossly offensive,' citing the biblical account in Luke 1:30–31 where the angel Gabriel announces to Mary that she will bear a son.
- Officials clarified that Klink's personal theological interpretation does not constitute official Episcopal Church doctrine, distinguishing individual sermons from the denomination's formal teachings despite the Church's progressive positions.
