Pottering pastor blends faith and clay at St. John’s
Rev. Dr. Tim McClendon, 60, senior pastor at St. John’s United Methodist Church in Aiken, is also a skilled potter of functional stoneware. He speaks of theology in clay and says pottery brings peace, focusing on the wheel and shaping clay as a metaphor for sanctification. He arrived at St. John's last year and was born in Greenwood.
