Biography
Bailey Wayne Hundl (she/he/they) is a writer, speaker, seminary dropout, and self-described "comedian" with a passion for telling stories that make homophobes uncomfortable. Much of their work has focused on the messy intersections of faith and queerness--and blatantly refusing the pressure to compromise the latter for the former. She founded Drag Sunday Services, which introduced the art of drag (and the human beings behind it) to congregations and faith organizations across the country. He currently writes for The Meteor.

The UMC bylaws have also prohibited “self-avowed practicing homosexuals” from being ordained as ministers—or appointed to serve in any capacity—since 1984. All of that changed on Wednesday.

So I knew that it would be a big deal if a drag queen got on the iTunes charts.
