In this concluding session, Pastor Josh Wilson is our key speaker. Josh describes that he is a white guy who, when Trayvon was murdered, began waking up to fact that his friends of color were living in a different reality. He wasn’t wasn’t ok with what he saw; he was grieved by the racism affecting people he loved and devastated that the church he served was failing to live up to the liberating, unifying Gospel it preached. This awareness sent him on a journey to reckon with and root out the racism in himself, the church, and the world. Over the past nine years, that journey has taken him from social media to the streets to the black church and finally, back home to dinner table conversations with his own family. Josh will be sharing a few postures and tactics that can disrupt assumptions, open up dialogue, and, at least occasionally, help others find their way toward repentance in conversations on race with families and friends.

There is no cost to attend, but all donations will go to bless our guest speaker. Please join us and help to spread the word!
