past tense: blackballed; past participle: blackballed
reject (someone, usually a candidate applying to become a member of a private club), typically by means of a secret ballot.
This episode is BIPOC UMC, but it also could be called "blackballed" UMC. Rev. Dr. Regenia Garrett has had much experience with this phenomenon, but has also learned what it means to love people even when they treat her poorly.
Genia has been in pastoral ministry for 28 years and preaching/teaching as speaker and evangelist since a teen. Dr. G states that one of the most important part of her life is to exemplify the life and love of Christ in all that she does and says. Born in Montgomery, AL to Deacon and Deaconess Eli and Sarah Garrett (Baptist), Dr. G was faithfully raised in the church – almost literally - 7 days a week. Her passion and love for the Word of God, holy living and teaching truth were formed during those years of church attendance and training.
Rev. Nancy Ellis is on staff at Faith UMC in St. Anthony...our episode with her is waaaay back at the beginning, scroll and you'll find her!
