The Rev. Anthony B. Thompson, a longtime priest of the Reformed Episcopal Church, lost his wife when Dylann Roof shot nine Christians to death during a Bible study at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston.
Here he preaches at Beeson Divinity School in Birmingham about how he lived by Christianity’s enduring theme of forgiveness amid that loss.
Fr. Thompson also spoke with the Rev. Timothy George, dean, on the Beeson Divinity School Podcast.
