Episode Overview: 

What do you see in the church and the world that is not in line with God’s word and His will? Isaac and Irwyn Ince discuss their “divine dissatisfactions” in the church and the world with regards to race. They also touch on Ince’s new book.

  • United? We Pray is a ministry to help Christians pray and think about racial strife. We want to encourage Christians amid the strife to rely upon God in prayer. So our prayers can be informed, we strive to learn and write about race, racism and its effects, and theology. We aim to be biblical, beneficial, and clear in all our efforts. While we’re burdened for all racial strife, we focus on racial strife between Christians because of the unique privilege and stewardship God has given his people: to bear witness to Him and to love all people, especially one another (Gal. 6:10).
