The spiritual metaphor of a table is compelling. To set that table, on the part of the host, is an act of service. The host is setting a place for the guest. The host is working so that others will be filled. And that table is not complete when one sits in it alone. Get hungry, Fam! We’re talking food, fellowship, legacy, love, and more on this week’s Pass The Mic.

A year later when his killer was acquitted #BlackLivesMatter became a hashtag. Then in 2014, when Mike Brown was killed Black Lives Matter became the banner under which the latest movement for Black freedom marched. 

Tyler and Jemar reflect on 10 years of racial revelations since Martin's murder and assess what it all means for attempts at racial justice in the church.
