Race and the Gospel – Eph 2:11-22
A number of events in 2016 caused our city and country to ask big questions about the reasons and ways our current structures fuel forms of racial prejudice. When looking for a solution, conversation can be a great starting point. However, a number of individuals and organizations are interested in discovering ways we can all move beyond conversation.
Come join us for an evening with Dwayne Bond to hear his perspective on ways the church can respond to the growing need to move beyond conversation.
