Rev. Scott Garber has ministered in several African-American and multicultural congregations, as well as teaching theology in Spain and Romania for more than a decade. He served as Senior Pastor at Washington Community Fellowship on Capitol Hill and is currently a Pastor-at-Large at Bridgeway Community Church in Columbia, MD. Scott is the founder and Executive Director of Overcoming, a nonprofit dedicated to racial justice and healing. He recently published a moral examination of white racial attitudes entitled White as Sin: A New Paradigm for Racial Healing (https://www.scottgarberbooks.com).
