The Nashville Chapter of the Religion Communicators Council holds
bi-monthly meetings to discuss hot topics and have deep discussions on what is
happening in the world today.
An interfaith communications organization, the Religion
Communicators Council, has chapters across the United States. In Nashville, the
group meets every other month for its series “Building Bridges Over Bagels.”
Organizers say this concept is all about strengthening ties between people of
different faiths and breaking bread together.
In September, the group met for breakfast at Weigh Down
Ministries, the church offices for the Remnant Fellowship Church in Franklin,
TN. According to its website, remnantfellowship.org, it is “an
international community of people who are finding renewed hope, profound love
and deep purpose by putting the undiluted teachings of Jesus Christ into
practice… This Church has its roots founded in the Bible-based teachings of Gwen
Shamblin through Weigh Down Ministries, who has a 30-plus years
long-and-counting track record of helping people change their lives in every
positive and productive way.” Past meeting locations have included the Church
of Scientology, Baha’i Faith Community Center and Islamic Center of Tennessee.
During the meeting, the President of Nashville’s RCC chapter, Rev.
Brian Fesler, had attendees discuss this year’s presidential candidates,
however, required them to find something good to say about each. They next
discussed how to spread these good messages further out into the community by
setting a good example.
The RCC has members from every faith group and walk of life
including Baha’is, Christians, Jews, Muslims, Scientologists, Sikhs, Hindus and
more. For more information about the RCC or their next meeting, visit
