Today we have a fantastic conversation with Julius Otieno Okumu, who is a court translator and has recently decided to pursue law school. He shares with us how he came to this decision, and addresses the injustices he’s witnessed and desires to be a part of implementing change within. He also shares good wisdom for us on how we can each help to put systemic racism to an end, and take ownership of the decisions being made in our country.

Today we chat with Ed Rowell, a pastor of nearly 30 years. Ed shares some great wisdom and encouragement for Christians as we navigate what it looks like to love people and stand for justice the way Christ did. He also shares some of his thoughts on Christian Nationalism and the dangers Christians can easily fall into. Let’s receive this admonishment and truth and stand together for the good of all.

Over the last 3 months, we’ve heard many different perspectives, life stories, and beliefs. What are we to do with all of this? Are you feeling overwhelmed by racism trauma, or perhaps carrying around white guilt? Our guest, Emily Larzabel is a licensed professional counselor, and she’s here to dig into the emotional and mental effects of racial divides, and help us learn how to walk together toward healing and reconciliation.

They carry both grace and conviction, and share some beautiful truths about how to create a solid foundation for our kids, and how to nourish and grow that year after year. Sit back and take in the joy and exhortation they have to offer.

Yoshika and Ivan Lowe are a couple who have raised four amazing children in the midst of a very white world. The Lowes have 30+ years of experience and wisdom to share about racism from a parent’s perspective. For those of us raising young kids today, this knowledge is essential for creating a better world and moving toward reconciliation and equality for all.
