That's a wrap for season two, as we reflect on what we've learned. We also hear from a church that is taking the next steps to create a hospitable environment in which all God's people thrive. It may sound like a tall order, but we know that God can provide us with abundant love and resources.

Gerard and Janine look at the ministry of a familiar congregation to highlight the importance of partnering with churches outside your neighborhood. We see that the benefits go both ways. 

We all have a unique way of viewing the world. In this episode, Janine and Gerard explore ways to adjust the paradigm and view the world as Christ does.

In this episode, we look at the ways sports offer key insights into living as the Body of Christ. Teamwork is key. It's important we know our roles and share the goal. We also explore why it's important to center the experiences of minority groups.

Gerard and Janine continue to explore the reasons why people are unconcerned about partiality in the church and society. They share some of their own experiences and consider some potential solutions. 

Some Christians don't feel that reconciliation work is urgent. Why is that? How can churches better reflect the multiethnic wisdom of our heavenly Father? Gerard and Janine start a two-part conversation about Barna's Beyond Diversity study. 

It can be scary to admit responsibility for our sin. But conviction and condemnation aren't the same. In this episode, we look to one of Scripture's major characters to learn how to deal with the conviction we feel when we err. As we do, we find God's grace waiting for us and learn what to do next.

Special guest alert! Pastor JT Thomas has been working in reconciliation for nearly two decades. He runs an organization called Civil Righteousness. Its mission is to equip churches to begin reconciliation work in a God-fearing way. His expertise will be a guide for our own contexts.

This episode highlights the gap between God's love of all people and our own relative unwillingness to champion the needs of minority groups. We look to Scripture as our precedent and explore what God's Word says about His character and how to reflect it. 

Welcome back! Janine and Gerard discuss what to expect this season. We'll introduce some research that will help us discern the church's role in racial reconciliation efforts. This season promises to be a lot of fun and extremely informative.
