Season six of “The Raceless Gospel” podcast continues in Advent, and it's an invitation to embody the evidence of your faith.

“Bear Witness” will move listeners away from faithless finger-pointing to becoming a case in point for the Jesus way.

Mary, the mother of Jesus, has a testimony. She put her body on the line after a different kind of pregnancy scare. The announcement that Jesus is coming makes people scared, including the men in and around her life, who are afraid for their lives in one way or another: John the Baptizer, the Pharisees and Sadducees, and Joseph, her soon-to-be husband--all bearing witness of one kind or another.

“Bear Witness." Join Rev. Starlette Thomas, your podcast pastor, for the 2025 Advent installment of "The Raceless Gospel" podcast. Four episodes will drop on Wednesdays: November 26, December 3, December 10 and December 17.

It’s season six of "The Raceless Gospel" podcast, and the question is: "Stay Woke?" It’s an inquiry for the sleepy-headed who are tired of the narrative of white-body supremacy and refuse to give it any more energy.

After the November presidential election, 92% of African American women took off their capes and invested in sheets with higher thread counts. They climbed into bed, closed their eyes, and started counting sheep. While African Americans hit the snooze button, European Americans are slowly waking up to the reality that racism is bad for everybody. After Republican politicians colonized the expression "stay woke," the community’s call to remain aware of social injustice and discrimination, African Americans collectively decided—without a meeting—that rest is resistance. Still, "every shut eye ain’t sleep."

"Take Me to the Water" book by Rev. Dr. Starlette Thomas ~ https://goodfaithmedia.org/product/take-me-to-the-water-by-starlette-thomas/

It's season five of "The Raceless Gospel" podcast, and this time it's "A Love Offering" -- an examination of the North American church's questionable relationship with money and an excoriation of flock-fleecing shepherds and modern-day money changers who turn a dollar into health and wealth and call it ministry.

Rev. Starlette Thomas, director of the Raceless Gospel Initiative at Good Faith Media, is host of "The Raceless Gospel" podcast. Thomas delivers an audio audit of the North American church's messages about giving. She talks about the dollars and cents of Christian ministry, and interrogates the so-called saving power of money and the churches that bank on this belief.

Episode 7: "Balance the Books."

What happened to the year of Jubilee and the year of the Lord’s favor? Something’s not adding up. In this episode, we discuss the need for an audit, which is to say a reckoning.

Guest: Andrew Wilkes.

"A Love Offering" is written and produced by Starlette Thomas, and edited by Cliff Vaughn. Music by Pond5.

Episode 6: "Pick Up the Tab."

Jesus said, “Feed my sheep”—not fleece my sheep. In pop culture and in many communities, preachers are mostly associated with mammon and greed. In this episode, we discuss the early church model of “sharing all things in common” and why everyone can’t have a seat at the table.

Episode 5: "Flat Broke."

The future of the church and the future of the community are not synonymous. A flattened view of the coming “kin-dom,” the focus remains on squeezing the world into a building. In this episode, we discuss the broken institution seemingly on its last leg, the increase in church closures and what it means to gather as Christian believers.
