So, We’re Still Praying?

by | Feb 7, 2018

 

 

“We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.”

– 2 Chronicles 20:12b

Episode Overview:

Taking racial struggles to the throne, United? We Pray is a podcast that calls for prayer about racial divisions in churches. With all that could be said about race and the church, why have a podcast on prayer? Here are four reasons:

  1. The Bible commands prayer.
  2. Church History commends prayer.
  3. Pastors know about prayer.
  4. Christians agree on prayer.

And so we pray. We’d love for you to join us for this second season as we approach the throne of grace—will you?

  • 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).
