Welcome to 'On The Path' with Cheryl Nembhard!

This week, Cheryl sits down with Sandra Maria Van Opstal—faith leader, activist, author, and co-founder of Chasing Justice, a movement led by people of color to live out faith and justice. Sandra is Executive Pastor at Grace and Peace Community in Chicago, a doctoral candidate, and recognized for her work disrupting oppressive systems within the church.

In this conversation, we explore:
- Sandra’s journey as a second-generation Latina navigating faith and culture
- The inspiration behind Chasing Justice and its impact on communities of color
- How the church can engage with justice and inclusion
- Avoiding burnout while doing heavy justice work
- Pillars for living a life of justice as a believer

This episode is for anyone called to live out faith and justice, or seeking encouragement and guidance in making a difference.
