Leadership
Tyler Wigg-Stevenson, Founder and Director
A Baptist preacher with a decade of experience in nuclear weapons policy, Tyler has dedicated much of his adult life to the abolition of nuclear weapons and the attainment of the post-atomic age. He converted to Christianity shortly after graduating from college, while working for the late U.S. Senator Alan Cranston. That conversion began a journey that would lead him to seminary in New Haven, where he met both his future wife, Natalie, and the congregation at Christian Tabernacle Baptist Church, who baptized and eventually licensed and ordained him to gospel ministry.
After a year in London as the Study Assistant to John Stott, Tyler and Natalie moved to Nashville, where she is pursuing her Ph.D. in theology. They are active members of First Baptist Nashville. In addition to leading 2FP, he writes and speaks regularly about the intersection of faith and public life, and has written a labor-of-love book, Brand Jesus: Christianity in a Consumerist Age (Seabury: 2007)
Tyler counts as a singular blessing for his life his varied and extensive exposure to a remarkable group of wise octogenarians, including Senator Cranston, the Rev. Dr. Stott, Ambassador Jim Goodby, Secretary George Shultz, the Rev. Dr. William Sloane Coffin, and his late grandfather, Valentine Fedor.
