Established in 2013, the Bonhoeffer Haus exists to train the next generation of church leaders through, ministry apprenticeships, theological formation and life together.

Reid S. Monaghan

Reid Monaghan received a Bachelor of Science in Applied Computer Science with a minor in Physics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. While at UNC he also competed on the wrestling team for the then perennial ACC Champion and top ten Tarheels. He holds a Master’s degree (MDiv) in Applied Apologetics, a multidisciplinary degree involving Philosophy, Biblical studies, and Theology.

He has spent decades working with students, pastoring, planting new churches and encouraging followers of Jesus to be thoughtful in their engagement of people in culture. He is the founder and president of The Gospel Underground, a ministry dedicated to advancing the mission of God in the borderlands between the church and culture.

He has long been engaged with the task of bringing the gospel to people in culture in clear and compelling ways combining theological vision, apologetics, Christian thought and contemporary culture.

Some of his greatest joys in life are from the gifts God has given him in his wife Kasey (married 1996), and his kiddos Kayla (circa 2001), Kylene (circa 2003), and Thomas Reid (circa 2006).
