In our Built By Faith series, we’re sitting down with faith leaders from across the state to talk about the intersections of Faith, Justice, and Advocacy. In this episode, you’ll hear from Rev. Dr. Jennifer Copeland. Executive Director of NC Council of Churches. Dr. Jennifer, with a PhD in religion, is a native of South Carolina and an ordained minister in The United Methodist Church. She loves South Carolina, but has managed to spend all but ten years of her adult life in North Carolina. Prior to joining the Council, she spent 16 years as the United Methodist Chaplain at Duke University, where she also taught undergraduate and divinity school classes.Show Notes/Credits:Rev William Barber on Voter ID: NC Newsline (2011)Trump Tells Laura Ingraham “I’m the Only One That Matters”: The Associated Press (2017)Justice: This Is the Bible's Radical View: BibleProject (2017)Pro-life, pro-choice groups clash in protest uptown: WCNC (2020)Rep.
