United…in What? (Part 2)

by | Apr 15, 2020

“Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.”

Romans 12:16

Austin and Isaac continue the discussion on unity, diving deeper into the particulars of racial unity. They give insights on how to be wise around the conversation on race, and share ways that people live out their faithfulness in the pursuit of racial justice.

Listen in as they answer questions like:

  • What roles do pastors and church leadership have in pursuing unity? Do they have a weightier role?
  • How does your relationship with someone determine how you handle a hard conversation on racial unity?
  • How do the ethnicities of those in conversation on race affect the conversation?
  • Why should we consider giving minorities more voice in the conversation on race? Isn’t that the showing the sin of partiality?

Author

  • 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).
