w/ Bo Bowen, Jeff Reams, Elaina Thompson, Caleb Hallman

On this episode of The DBC Podcast, Bo sits down with occasional co-host Jeff Reams (Mission Pastor) and special guests Elaina Thomson (leader of "The Middle" Single Adult group) and Caleb Hallman (co-leader of DBC's Young Professionals ministry) to discuss the hot-button issue of Racism, as well as why the issue makes the button so hot to begin with. Specifically, the conversation focuses on the Christian response to issues of race that find their way, more often than we realize, into our neighborhoods, local church communities, and even our Bible study groups. Elaina and Caleb, both people of color, share their own experiences and insights, and offer helpful advice on how Christians can move forward, both as individuals and as a local disciple-making community, in a society that is becoming increasingly polarized on issues of racism, immigration, and personal security.

We definitely want to keep this conversation going, so please make sure you share your own thoughts and questions with us on our website, www.dbcpodcast.org. Leave us a comment and let us know what you think. You can also tweet to us at @dbcpodcasts.
