Known with Mandee McD

Christina Custodio and I became friends when she shared her story in Episode 39 of Known.  I happen to be a white woman and she happens to be a black woman, but we are both women of faith.
This time we are in is a time of hope, but also a time of fear and confusion for many.  Christina and I decided to ask each other the hard questions and say the hard things and share it with you so you feel a little more free to do the same.
Episode 5 begins with a quote from Bryan Stevenson.  How comfortable do you feel with your own race?  How comfortable are you with other races?  Some interesting thoughts came from this conversation.  Listen and then go have on of your own.
We may not agree with each other all the time.  And you might not agree with either of us, but isn't that the beauty of diversity?  What we can agree on is that we love Jesus, He loves us and we all need Him now!
Some of the topics are our own thoughts, but many are what we have heard from others.  If there is a topic you want us to discuss or that you want to challenge us on, please send an email or find us on social media.

Episode 4 is a reminder to point people to Jesus.  That's the only thing that's really going to bring about difference.  What Would Jesus Do?  You can't change someone else, but you can make room for God to do the changing.

Episode 3 is about our differences.  It's ok to be different and to acknowledge those differences in a loving and open-minded way!

Episode 2 will give you a little more information about our own backgrounds. Each and every one of us (in the world) have a special set of experiences that define our perspective on every issue.  Race isn't an exception to the rule.  We must consider our own perspective as well as the perspective of the person we are trying to communicate with.  "Put yourself in someone else's shoes."

Each episode will be fairly short.  They may even sound a little choppy at times, but our hope is that you will hear something that can serve as a conversation starter.
