Are you tired of hearing about race? Some are; some aren't. But the way Christ is portrayed in pictures in church shows how race may matter more than most realize. Jesus wasn't white or black, but in honor of Black History Month, let's take a look at some blacks mentioned in the Bible.

This is the first in C.L.'s month-long series looking at race. 

About "The Nonmicrowaved Truth":
How fast do you have to have "IT"? Our culture tells us to find a microwave to speed up the process. C.L. Whiteside, a man who sees and hears multiple perspectives through his life of coaching sports, serving in education, and attempting to conform to Christ, searches for the nonmicrowaved truth. C.L. gets that what’s cool and acceptable now, may not be cool and acceptable tomorrow—and most importantly, may not be what’s best.
