Welcome to Season 2 of the Pray with our Feet podcast! It's been a while since Season 1 wrapped, and we are excited to be in conversation with you all again. And, if you're on Instagram or Twitter, we regularly share there, too! 

This season our theme is racism in the church: How do we dismantle it, along and also begin to move towards reconciliation?

Throughout the season, we'll explore  - 

- Racism in the Church (form a historical perspective), looking at
   the early church.

- Racism & the early church (biblical roots): how this connects what we are seeing in the American church today?

- In what way does the church need to rediscover the gospel of Jesus Christ in order to deal with racism?

- What are the shifts - administrative, cultural and individual - that need to take place in the collective body of Christ to uproot racism and the ideology of white supremacy?

- What are the strategies we can begin to lean into as individuals, and church bodies to uproot racism within our own hearts and minds?

We're excited to bring you conversations with ministers, activists, and organizers doing the deep and necessary work of anti-racism.
