Faith Virtual Roundtable

Sexuality and the Church don't mix. Historically, the church has always created fear, misinformation and danger around sexuality. Minister Candace Simpson speaks the truth about living life as a whole person which means that sexuality and faith must be holistically connected.
Minister Candace Simpson is a sister, educator and preacher. She is a graduate of Trinity College and Union Theological Seminary. At Concord, Minister Simpson designs the adult Sunday School lessons. It is her delight to create lessons that include Black liberation, joy and practical applications of the text. She also is a staff developer at the Concord Freedom School, a literacy-based social justice program for children. Currently, Minister Simpson works with non-profits and churches to design and facilitate Christian anti-oppression lessons and workshops. Minister Simpson serves on the board of the Samuel DeWitt Proctor Conference, an organization dedicated to nurturing the Black faith community through education, advocacy and activism. It is Candace's philosophy that Heaven is a Revolution that can happen right here on Earth. She is the lead writer and curriculum designer at Fish Sandwich Heaven, an online resource for dreaming a freer world.
