Detoxifying the Black Church | Dr. John Kinney on Making Black Lives Matter

October 29, 2020

It’s like we – Black poeple – are stranded in the wilderness and don’t know it…

It’s like we are stranded in the wilderness and have reconciled ourselves to that position…

Has the Black Church kept us stranded in the wilderness? Why is it that the Church hasn’t been able to guide us through the wilderness by now?

Dr. John Kinney, Professor of Theology and Former Dean of the School of Theology at Virginia Union, joins us to speak about where the Black Church is in the struggle for the Mattering of Black Life and offer his thoughts on where the Black Church should be in this struggle to restore Black Life to the imago Dei.

He came with a lot of wisdom! And, got started right away…

Literally…

We had barely said hello before the Spirit gave word and the conversation took off! So, I’m going to be short on this intro as well…inviting you to enjoy this conversation. Let us know: what is the single greatest takeaway you gleaned from this discussion?
