Ep 18: Determination, Liberation Theology, & Critical Race Theory w/ Donnell Wyche

1 hour 54 minutes

On episode eighteen I'm talking with my friend Donnell Wyche. This conversation was a lot of fun and we talked about many important topics, including Liberation Theology (and why African American theologians have been overlooked), ethnic diversity in the Church, Critical Race Theory, and much, much more!

About Donnell:
