11 FEB 2021 · Common Good Faith - Wednesday February 10, 2021 Today on Common Good Faith, our hosts dig into Galatians 3 and how it is often used to erase diversity rather than bring about justice and genuine Christ-centered unity. Also under the microscope is the Bruce Springsteen Jeep Super Bowl commercial calling for Americans to “meet in the middle” and how it is a call for false unity that centers color-blindness and erases a long history of white supremacy. Notes and resources: The oft-misused Galatians 3: “There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” Doing Justice by Dominique Gilliard Multiracial churches don't challenge racism until they challenge white supremacy The Jeep Commercial Common Good Faith Hosts: Dominique DuBois Gilliard is the Director of Racial Righteousness and Reconciliation for the Evangelical Covenant Church.
