Karen Ellis Sees Marginalized Christians

The Stoop Sessions

Born in Baltimore, Karen Ellis’ love for theater took her from Broadway to places throughout the U.S. and internationally. Although her experience growing up included directing church choirs, it was not until she studied at Yale that she came to know Christ as her Savior. Today, she is the director of The Edmiston Center in Atlanta, devoted to studying the priorities, presence, and practices of Christians enduring on the margins of society. Ellis sees marginalized Christians throughout history and around the world. Her work has focused on commonalities between these communities. In this episode, the Stoop crew calls her up and discusses what we can glean from the rich history of these believers as they display God’s kingdoms from worldly disadvantage and oppression. Additionally, Karen shares resources for learning more from voices often overlooked. Support the podcast at www.onehope.gives/donate
