Your directory permissions for your Theme directory are incorrect.

  • wp-content: 0755
  • wp-content/themes: 0755
  • wp-content/themes/kenchristy: 0700

Per the Codex, folder permissions should be set to 755:

In such an suexec configuration, the correct permissions scheme is simple to understand.

  • All files should be owned by the actual user’s account, not the user
    account used for the httpd process.
  • Group ownership is irrelevant, unless there’s specific group
    requirements for the web-server process permissions checking. This is
    not usually the case.
  • All directories should be 755 or 750.
  • All files should be 644 or 640. Exception: wp-config.php should be
    600 to prevent other users on the server from reading it.
  • No directories should ever be given 777, even upload directories.
    Since the php process is running as the owner of the files, it gets
    the owners permissions and can write to even a 755 directory.

So, try changing wp-content/themes/kenchristy/ from 0700 to 0755.
