Rev. Dr. Brad R. Braxton was installed as the new Senior Minister at Riverside Church on Sunday, despite a motion filed by a group of congregants with the Manhattan State Supreme Court that contested the Reverend’s pay (exceeding $600,000 by some estimates) and the opaque selection method through which he was chosen. Questions about Rev. Braxton’s commitment to diversity and progressivism have also been raised.
