Episode 18 In this episode of the Removing Barriers Podcast, we sat down with Dr. Michael Baldwin to discuss the racial past of the U.S. and how the church handled the issue. As a Bible believing Christian, Dr. Baldwin found no pleasure in some of the hard things he had to say, but they needed to be said in order to expose the hurt and the racial tensions of the past, and to promote healing for the present. Conversations matter! Some of the things that were said in this podcast were difficult things to say, but we can no longer sweep these things under the rug. The chickens have come home to roost. While the church may have failed to biblically handle the racial divide of the past, we can do a better job of handling our current day issues. Let’s talk about these things in our churches and among God’s people with the love of Christ ruling the conversation. Without conversation, change will not happen, and without action, love and understanding will not be shown. Give this episode a listen. Racial reconciliation occurred in Christ, so let’s walk in it.
