ENH 010: Racial Divide, Multi-Cultural Theology and Longevity in Ministry with Derwin Gray
Why Listen?
This is perhaps the most important episode of the show we've done. Ex nihilo means "from nothing". This site is all about recovering some of what we lost in the Garden of Eden. This includes our bodies, our diets, or prayer/meditation life, but it also includes how we treat one another. We call that "community". How do we relate with one another? That's a big question we need to answer
We know that racial tension is high today in the US, and our guest gives us some very hardcore truths about the realities of the solution to these problems. They are very real truths that are hard to hear, but important for us to reconcile with one another.
