![]() ![]() Rachel graduated from Bryan College in 2003 and married Dan Evans, her college boyfriend, that year. Rachel’s family moved to Dayton because her father got a job at the college there. Dayton, you may remember, is where the (in)famous Scopes Trial was held in 1925.įive years later, Bryan College – named for William Jennings Bryan, the prosecutor at the 1925 trial – was founded in that small city. Rachel Grace Held was born in Alabama but moved with her birth family to Dayton, Tennessee, when she was 14. I’m greatly saddened she didn’t live to celebrate the big 4-0, as she died on May 4, 2019. ![]() Rachel Held Evans would have turned 40 today, and it seems appropriate to take some time to remember her life and legacy. ![]()
