How Does the Gospel Address the Problem of Racism? - John Stevens

In the final talk, we move to construct a biblical response to the issue of racism in our society and our churches. Whatever our view about the validity or otherwise of CRT, the gospel ought to produce radical racial reconciliation. We consider how this should be modelled and reflected in our lives, churches, and ministries. This is the final part of a 5-part series on Evangelical Responses to Critical Race Theory.<br />
