More than 1,000 people registered for a webinar hosted by The Expectations Project called Messengers of Hope: Faith and Action in the Trump Era.
The October 12 webinar featured Nicole Baker Fulgham, our Founder and President, and Joshua DuBois, President Obama’s White House Director of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships.
Attendees learned about: 1) The biblical foundations for advocacy; 2) Educational inequality in America—and why it’s a critical biblical justice issue; and 3) How to contact your leaders on Capitol Hill about the Trump education budget.
Here’s what some people said about the event on social media:
Truth from @joshuadubois “advocacy matters. Speak up. Speak out. And live your values in the public square” @expectproject

“When we’re quiet in issues that matter, that’s not civility. That’s silence.” @joshuadubois
