Lenten Lecture Series – Rev. Sherry Cothran

All lectures take place in the University UMC Chapel at 7:00 p.m.

Sherry Cothran has crafted a unique voice as songwriter, author, singer and preacher. Her voice has been described from various spheres as deeply poetic with arresting honesty, edgy and fresh, evocative and inviting.  She has acted in a film, written songs for t.v, movie and radio and these days, she is a critically acclaimed singer/songwriter who is also an ordained, United Methodist minister.

In December, Sherry released her first book, “Tending Angels: Stories From the Frontlines of Heaven and Earth,” a collection of essays from her time as senior pastor of an urban church in Music City in which she encountered Nashville’s hidden population of homeless, refugees, immigrants and the poor. Sherry is seeking to raise awareness for the fast growing and most hidden population in America, the homeless and poor.
