Religion & Spirituality
In the past few episodes, we’ve addressed the external realities of racial disparities and dove into our perspective of Christian theology relating to race. And today we dive into topics related to the heart: the conversation on privilege and power. Some topics we address include white privilege, insensitivity, white fragility, virtue signaling, and color blindness. And throughout the conversation, we explore these terms and what they mean in light of the gospel and our identity as children of God. We want to hear questions from you! If you'd like for us to tackle a question you might have about race and religion, send the question to ourfaithjourneypodcast@gmail.com, or you can send a message to Our Faith Journey Instagram and Facebook pages.
