WHAT: Mockingbird is a ministry that seeks to connect the historic truths of the Gospel with the realities of everyday life in as down-to-earth a way possible. WHY: Are we called Mockingbird? The name was inspired by the mockingbird’s peculiar gift for mimicking the cries of other birds. In a similar way, we seek to repeat the message we have heard - God’s Word of grace and forgiveness. HOW: Via every medium available! At present this includes (but is not limited to!) a daily weblog, regular conferences and meetings, and an ongoing publications initiative. The deeply relational nature of our message/material means that everything we do is undergirded by a great deal of face-to-face and one-on-one time. WHO: We employ one full-time staff, David Zahl. We also have a number of contributing volunteers and writers. Our board of directors is chaired by The Rev. Paul Walker. WHERE: Our office is located in Christ Episcopal Church at 120 West High Street in Charlottesville, Virginia. WHEN: Mockingbird was incorporated in June 2007 and is currently in its fourth year of operation.
