Stand UP Speak OUT Great American Roadcast - Episode 4 - Peggy Campolo

This interview is with Peggy Campolo, an evangelical Christian who challenges evangelical churches to re-think their stand against gay and lesbian people. She is on the Advisory Board of the Association of Welcoming and Affirming Baptists, and speaks frequently to church and campus groups. Peggy is also a highly-visible advocate for the full inclusion of gay, lesbian, bisexual and trans-gender people within the church. She is a member of PFLAG and Evangelicals Concerned, and is a member of Central Baptist Church in Wayne, Pennsylvania.  A graduate of Eastern College, Peggy is a writer and editor. She contributed to a book by Walker Wink entitled, Homosexuality and Christian Faith. Questions on Conscience for the Churches.  Dotti and Peggy first met in 1999, when Soulforce initially met in Lynchburg, VA, to confront the spiritual violence against gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender persons.  Peggy and her husband, Tony Campolo, are well known for their talk, "Living with Our Differences," which they have given at numerous churches.
