New Hope Author: Debra Berry
Debra Berry is well equipped to write about the promise of change. Growing up in the racially divided Charleston of the 1960s, Debra has experienced firsthand the issues that affect African American women of today. Her parents instilled in her a deep, abiding faith that stayed with her when she left to attend South Carolina State University. Though her SGA vice presidency suggested the promise of a political career, Debra chose full-time ministry instead. She received her Master of Divinity from the Interdenominational Theological Center in 1989. Debra is currently a chaplain major in the Alabama Air National Guard and full-time ministry consultant for African American audiences for Woman’s Missionary Union, the largest Protestant women’s organization in the world. Since 1990, she has served on the Congress of Christian Education of the National Baptist Convention. She also works with the African American Fellowship of the Southern Baptist Convention. Debra lives in Birmingham, Alabama.
