Barkley Stuart Thompson (born 1972) is a priest in the Episcopal Church who currently serves as the Eighth Dean of Christ Church Cathedral in Houston, Texas. Christ Church Cathedral is the cathedral church for the Episcopal Diocese of Texas. ==Early life and education== Thompson was born on November 17, 1972 in Paragould, Arkansas. He is the younger brother of Robert F. Thompson, Arkansas state senator representing the 11th District. Thompson was raised a Methodist, with his early formation in the United Methodist Church contributing to his vocation to pastoral ministry. While in college, Thompson was encouraged to visit a local Episcopal parish church by one of his college professors. About his experience of walking into the church, Thompson has said, "The moment I crossed the threshold from narthex to nave, I had a deep sense that I had come home". He joined the Episcopal Church shortly thereafter, which he has described as combining "the Methodist theology of hospitality and grace" with "Catholic sacramental and liturgical worship". Thompson graduated with a BA, magna cum laude, from Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas in 1995, where he also received the college’s President’s Medal, presented to the student who best exemplifies the school’s highest ideals. Thompson went on to earn an MA degree from the University of Chicago Divinity School in 1998. He later earned the Master of Divinity degree from the Episcopal Theological Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas. Currently, Thompson serves on the Seminary of the Southwest’s Board of Trustees.
