Rev. Dr. Otis Moss III is senior pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. He is a preacher, activist, author and filmmaker with an eye toward justice and equality, as evidenced through the gospel of Jesus Christ. He founded the Unashamed Media Group, a justice centered faith-based agency committed to producing and curating stories to inspire the heart and challenge the mind. In October 2020, Dr. Moss created Otis’ Dream, a short film about his grandfather’s unsuccessful attempt to vote in 1946.
His books include Blue Note Preaching in a Post-Soul World: Finding Hope in an Age of Despair (2015) and his most recent, Dancing in the Darkness: Spiritual Lessons for Thriving in Turbulent Times (2023). Dr. Moss is ordained in the Progressive National Baptist Convention and the United Church of Christ.
