This is a personal website that I began to experiment with digital ministry. I no longer maintain or update the site. You are welcome to contact me directly.
I'm V. Blaine Hill, and this website shares my work as a pastor in the Presbyterian Church (USA), and a few of my interests outside of service in the church. I have served as the Associate Pastor at Lake Murray Presbyterian Church in Chapin, SC, since 2016. I served as pastor of Cherokee Presbyterian Church in Lexington, South Carolina, from 2005 to 2016, and the pastor of First Presbyterian Church of Waverly, New York, from 2001 to 2005. I graduated from Hampden-Sydney College ('94) and Columbia Theological Seminary ('01). I worked with emotionally disturbed boys in a wilderness program and as a business phone equipment salesman before attending seminary. Ordained in 2001, I am a more theologically conservative person in a more theologically liberal denomination, the Presbyterian Church (USA). My wife and I have been married since 1996, and we have four amazing children. I continue to deny the persistent rumors that I paid for my education by spending the summers as a sword swallower in the circus.
