ANTI-RACISM RESOURCES
The following are some helpful resources as our church family enters into a season of greater listening, learning, and loving in regard to the gospel and the issues of race that are front and center in our cultural moment. To that end, this list has been put together to promote greater listening to, learning about, and loving our black brothers and sisters – their diverse experiences and perspectives.

*Please note that in offering these resources, we recognize that we might not agree with everything in them, but that doesn’t mean they are not helpful in understanding other points of view and teaching us to listen, learn, and love even those with whom we disagree. Please read them with a prayerful and discerning heart and mind. This is by no means an exhaustive list, but it’s a good place to start.
