Rev. David Kennedy, leader of New Beginning Missionary Baptist Church in Laurens, SC, has recently been interviewed by The Today Show, The Washington Post, and numerous outlets sharing his story of hope. A movie was made based on his experience of helping a member of the Ku Klux Klan change his life and denounce that lifestyle. It is titled "Burden" and stars Forest Whitaker. In this segment of the interview, he touches on growing up during the Jim Crow era in South Carolina and what led him to the faith.
