August 03, 2026 From Stage to Stove to Pulpit: Lindsay Borden's Many Lives of Service, Ep. 552
Lindsay Borden is a reformed actor (the more obscure the venue, the more likely she was to appear there), a former chef (having cooked in temples of haute cuisine as well as soup kitchens), and a semi-successfully-retired late-adult onset Presbyterian pastor. She lives in New York City where she preaches, protests, volunteers, and writes about things that trouble her and things that bring her joy.
Recent publications include the CNF piece, “Inheritance,” in The Twin Bill magazine (https://thetwinbill.com/), which also featured Lindsay’s flash fiction piece, “Glimmering,” in its first anthology publication, Early Innings. Audio of her sermons can be found on You Tube @revlindsayborden and at https://revlindsay.podbean.com/.
