Troubling Biblical Waters: (Anti)Racist Paradigms in the New Testament

Contrary to popular opinion, the Bible has not always been an ally in the struggle for anti-racist work. Though replete with Scriptures that convey God's vision for a world of equality and justice where every human being is created in the common image of God and viewed as equally valuable, the Bible has also been used for more nefarious ends. It has served to undergird the value of all humanity and to establish a legitimating ideology for theologically justified supremacist thought. Please join us for the second in our two part conversation about the Bible and race as we explore the way that the New Testament has been employed in American conversations about race. We are happy to welcome panelists Dr. Brian K. Blount, Dr. Stephanie Crowder, and Dr. Emerson Powery to this important conversation moderated by Dr. Rodney Sadler. The Just Talk/Talk Just conversations are intentionally provocative in title and content. We aim to open discussions which are often difficult about topics that are crucial to the church in our present moment. We believe we cannot shy away from these conversations, nor can we keep silent during prophetic moments for our culture. We encourage you to attend, listen, ask questions, and consider what it is that God may be saying about the issues we explore together. In this way can we expand our horizons and inspire the church to work toward greater justice and equity.
