Confronting Racial Ideologies

It’s a sin problem, not a skin problem. I’m colorblind. Our church isn’t in a diverse area. Bring up race, and Christians have a predictable set of responses. We investigate how racial ideology functions to shield us from real conversations about race, and how we can confront engage them.

Jesus and John Wayne and Kristin Kobes du Mez

Jesus and John Wayne and Kristin Kobes du Mez

Pundits, pastors, prognosticators and podcasters have spent the last four years wringing our hands to explain how 81% of Evangelicals could vote for Trump despite the convictions of our faith. Scholar Kristin Kobes du Mez demonstrates that our vote wasn't despite our faith, but because of it. She joins our podcast to explore how Evangelicals have baked militant white patriarchy into our faith. It's another episode we just couldn't quit - and hopefully neither can you!
