In this special holiday episode of Diversity Conversations, Eric Ellis and Dr. Tommie Lewis dive deep into “The Season of Giving and Grace.” 

From 2:30 a.m. moments of quiet reflection to a breakthrough idea about “trillion-dollar stars” in underserved communities, Eric and Tommy explore what it really means to give, receive, forgive, and reset. 

You’ll hear: 

• How giving beyond material gifts—time, attention, empathy, presence—can matter more than anything money can buy.
• Eric’s powerful story of loaning his brother $10,000, not speaking for two years, and then being led to call and apologize, which completely transformed their relationship.
• Tommy’s honest account of wrestling with anger, control, and change at home—and how a real encounter with the Holy Spirit “hit the reset button” on his heart, teaching him to live with more grace, abundance, and compassion in real time.
• A fresh look at diversity conversations themselves: why this show is not just for DEI experts, but for anyone willing to bring their real stories, questions, and humanity to the table.

This episode is a vulnerable, hope-filled invitation to ask yourself:
 

• What am I really giving this season?
• Where do I need to extend grace—to others and to myself?
• What new story is God (or life) inviting me to live into?
