Subscribe:  Subscription Link: ⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/BurnsClan⁠⁠   Title: How to Live a Grounded Life with Dr. Zina Jacque   Description: Well, family...This episode is one for the books!  In the second episode of The Black Christian Experience, we talk about one of the hardest things to maintain in our walk with God: the ability to be grounded. Being grounded can keep us rooted and steady in an unstable world. And with everything that we are facing in the world, healthy roots can keep us whole.   That's why today, we are speaking with the one and only, The Rev. Dr. Zina Jacque.   For over 20 years, Dr. Jacque worked in student affairs at institutions such as Northwestern, the University of Chicago, and the University of California, ultimately serving as Legislative Liaison to California’s 108 community colleges. After answering a call to the ministry, she earned an M.Div. (Summa Cum Laude) and Ph.D. in Theology from Boston University and went on to serve churches of all sizes, including Alfred Street Baptist Church.   Dr. Jacque has taught at the University of Chicago Divinity School and Boston University School of Theology and led mission-driven organizations, including the Boston TenPoint Coalition and the Pastoral Counseling Center at Trinity Church Boston. She currently serves as President and Board Chair of National Senior Communities, supporting over 28,000 residents and 17,000 staff. She is also co-founder of Courageous Conversations, a national dialogue series on belonging and inclusion.   A recipient of the Distinguished Alumni Award from BU, Citizen of the Year in Barrington, and the Women of Distinction Award, Dr. Jacque is widely regarded as a voice of grace, wisdom, and hope.   She is one of a kind and she blessed us in this episode!

This season's theme: "How?" We want to spend this season wrestling with the practical and tangible realities of what it means to be both Black and Christian, all at the same time.     In this first episode, our host G. Tyler Burns wrestles with this central theme:  How are we still here?    This question is a double entendre that can bring confusion and clarity depending on how we ask it. But hidden beneath the surface of this question, we can find something mysterious and wonderful about ourselves and also about this podcast.     Be sure to subscribe to The Black Christian Experience Podcast wherever you are listening.

We need to move different.   We started the Pass The Mic podcast late in 2013, now, more than a decade later, the podcast as you’ve known it is coming to a close. This is not so much an ending, but an evolution. We still have several more episodes airing every other week, and after the final episode, Tyler will continue on with the podcast under a new name and with a new exciting focus and Jemar will make occasional appearances.    This episode is the announcement but not the ending. We’re planning a live, online finale episode later this year that you will all be invited to.   So stay subscribed and stay tuned.   Let’s address the natural question: WHY?!?   First, Jemar, Tyler, and Beau are all good.   There was no fallout, blowup, or disagreement that led to this decision.   We are glad to say that closing out Pass The Mic did not come as a result of interpersonal drama or conflict.   We have been engaged in this conversation for nearly a year. We reasoned together and concluded that this season of Pass The Mic has come to an end.   Then we gave each other the time and space to process both the bitter and the sweet that comes with such a significant transition.  You’ll hear it on this week’s podcast episode, our genuine love and affection for one another has never been stronger.   Our deepest thanks for the labor, the wisdom, and the friendship of the whole team both seen and unseen who have made this show possible.  So the shift is not about drama, it is about adapting.   This decision did not arise from a place of fear or scarcity but of health and growth.  We’ve been saying for several episodes now that we have to move differently.   The culture is changing. Our political situation is in crisis. The church is being called to witness in a new way.   Tyler is doing life-shifting work as a pastor, and he has so many more ideas for other projects that he is now free to pursue.  Beau is doing the vital work of storytelling employing imagination to spark conversation and joy. Check out his upcoming show at MidnightHTX.com.  Ryan has a new day job, and is faithfully serving his church community.  Jemar has been sensing the Holy Spirit moving him to do more online teaching and acting as a bridge between academic study and the church practice. Be sure to follow his next project  “The Justice Journey: A Biblical Guide to Making Wrong Things Right.”   We will, of course, miss Pass The Mic.   This has been part of our lives for more than ten years. We have had so many laughs, memories, and bonding moments.   Most importantly, you, our listeners and viewers, have been with us for the journey.   What we will miss most is the community we’ve formed around the show and the ways you all have encouraged us, challenged us, and loved us throughout this show.   In times when the broader evangelical and Reformed community rejected us for our commitment to Christ and the blackness he gifted us with, you have been our steady and supportive siblings in the faith.   Remember to keep listening. We still have more episodes coming, a live finale episode, and a new show by Tyler launching on the same podcast feed.   With gratitude for what lies behind and expectation for what lies ahead, we say:   See you soon on the next…?

Dr. Jemar Tisby &amp; Pastor G. Tyler Respond to Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell  In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of Pass The Mic, hosts Dr. Jemar Tisby and G. Tyler Burns respond to controversial remarks made by Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell in a recent sermon, where he stated:  “Stop blaming white cops for the killing of Black children.”  Jemar and G. Tyler unpack the implications of this statement, examining it through the lens of Black Christian ethics, systemic injustice, and the church's prophetic responsibility in addressing police violence and anti-Black racism. It's important to note that Pastor Mitchell has apologized for this statement, and they address his apology as well.   They also reflect on how statements like these impact grieving communities, perpetuate harmful narratives, and reveal deeper tensions within American Christianity when it comes to race, justice, and pastoral leadership.

The opening was a portion of the unreleased song "Bodies". Samuel L. Jackson appeared in a recurring role as Uncle Sam, who provided satirical commentary and advice to Kendrick between songs to illustrate the spirit of America. Lamar initially teased a performance of "Not Like Us," playing the beat and stating "I wanna play their favorite song, but you know they love to sue." Lamar played "Luther" and "All the Stars" with SZA before returning to "Not Like Us." Professional tennis player Serena Williams, who shares Lamar's hometown of Compton, made a cameo appearance as a dancer doing a crip walk during "Not Like Us", a reference to Williams performing a similar dance after her victory at the 2012 Summer Olympics, for which she faced criticism. Williams's appearance was also received as a diss towards Drake, with whom she was rumored to have dated several years earlier. The performance was capped off by "TV Off" with Mustard coming out as a special guest, finally with Lamar "turning the TV off" and the words "GAME OVER" being displayed through crowd wristband lights.

Cody is a native of Tulsa and a descendant of great-grandparents who were directly impacted by the infamous Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921, in Greenwood.

He is directly connected with the impact of mass incarceration on women and people of color in the United States. His true passion is teaching God’s word and listening to the vulnerable in our society.

Radcliff Jr.</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/passing-the-mic-to-dwight-a-radcliff-jr--63233833</link><description><![CDATA[This week Dr Jemar Tisby is joined by Dr Dwight Radcliff to discuss his experience as Academic Dean for the William E. Pannell Center for Black Church Studies and Assistant Professor of Mission, Theology, and Culture at Fuller Seminary Houston.  Dwight A. Radcliff Jr. joined the faculty of Fuller as assistant professor of mission, theology, and culture in 2019, and was named at the same time as director of the William E. Pannell Center for Black Church Studies. In 2020, he was named as academic dean for the Pannell Center. Prior to coming to Fuller, Dr. Radcliff taught at Vanguard University, Azusa Pacific University, and the Southern California School of Ministry.  While completing his MDiv in Fuller’s School of Theology, Radcliff was recognized with several awards and scholarships, including the prestigious Parish Pulpit Fellowship graduation prize and the Hooper/Keefe Preaching Award. He earned his PhD in Fuller’s School of Intercultural Studies; in that time he received both a Pannell Fellowship and a King Fellowship. He completed post-master’s studies at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas and the University of Oxford.  His dissertation is entitled “The Message: A Hip Hop Hermeneutic as a Missiological Model,” and portions of his doctoral research have already been published in a peer-reviewed article in The Journal of Hip Hop Studies and presented in multiple professional, ministry, educational, and popular contexts.  Radcliff lectures in seminaries, universities, and conferences on topics ranging from urban church planting, culture, theology, preaching, social justice, millennials, and evangelism. His teaching and preaching has taken him across the US and abroad to places including Brazil and London. He also previously served as a deputy and chaplain with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, during which time he received recognition and commendations from city, county, state, and federal officials.  Radcliff has over 20 years experience in pastoral ministry, and currently serves as senior pastor of The Message Center in Gardena, California, where he leads with his wife, DeShun Jones-Radcliff, who serves as the church’s director of administration. He and his wife have two daughters. Learn more about your ad choices.

Some Christians enthusiastically praise dictatorial leaders and regimes. This fall, Georgetown University’s Center on Faith and Justice hosted a summit of interfaith leaders with the intention of countering these disturbing trends. The Summit took place on September 19-20 at the new McCourt School of Public Policy building on Georgetown’s Capitol Campus. The summit included the unveiling of a new statement presenting a theologically centered Christian defense of Democracy, sessions on the themes of religion and democracy and devoted to strategizing about how to maintain the integrity of our faith traditions and our tradition of democratic governance. We met in a moment of crisis. Yet we did so as people of God animated by faith, hope, and love. It is in this spirit that we reaffirm Christian support for democracy and invite all Christians and people of moral conscience to do the same. Learn more about your ad choices.

Inspired by a recent viewing of American Fiction, Dr. Jemar Tisby is joined with EP Beau York to discuss the pitfalls that progressive white liberals fall into when attempting to separate themselves from racism. American Fiction is a 2023 American comedy-drama film written and directed by Cord Jefferson in his feature directorial debut. Based on the 2001 novel Erasure by Percival Everett, it follows a frustrated novelist-professor who writes an outlandish satire of stereotypical "Black" books, only for it to be mistaken for serious literature and published to high sales and critical praise. The film stars Jeffrey Wright, Tracee Ellis Ross, Issa Rae, Sterling K. Brown, John Ortiz, Erika Alexander, Leslie Uggams, Adam Brody and Keith David.

Dr. Otis Moss III (ARCHIVES)</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/pass-the-mic-rev-dr-otis-moss-iii-archives--62398864</link><description><![CDATA[We are taking a little time to gear up for the next round of episodes from Pass The Mic but did not want to leave you hanging. We've got back to back hits from the archives for you to enjoy in the meantime. New episodes return Feb 5th.  With civil rights advocacy in his DNA, Rev. Dr. Otis Moss III built his ministry on community advancement and social justice activism. As Senior Pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, Illinois, Dr. Moss spent the last two decades practicing and preaching a Black theology that unapologetically calls attention to the problems of mass incarceration, environmental justice, and economic inequality.  Dr. Moss is part of a new generation of ministers committed to preaching a prophetic message of love and justice, which he believes are inseparable companions that form the foundation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He was recently recognized as one of the “12 Most Effective Preachers in the English-Speaking World” by Baylor University’s George W. Truett Theological Seminary. As part of his community engagement through Trinity United Church of Christ, Dr. Moss led the team that came up with the “My Life Matters” curriculum; which includes the viral video, “Get Home Safely: 10 Rules of Survival” created in the aftermath of Michael Brown’s death at the hands of Ferguson, Missouri police. Dr. Moss was named to the inaugural Root 100, a list that “recognizes emerging and established African-American leaders who are making extraordinary contributions,” according to the publication’s website. Honorees range between ages 25 to 45 and their accomplishments and successes transcend media headlines or statistics. With a unique gift to communicate across generations, Dr. Moss’ creative Bible-based messages have inspired young and old alike. His intergenerational preaching gift has made Dr. Moss a popular speaker on college campuses, at conferences, and churches across the globe. He is highly influenced by the works of Zora Neale Hurston, August Wilson, Howard Thurman, Jazz, and Hip-Hop music. The work and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and the pastoral ministry of his father, Rev. Dr. Otis Moss, Jr. of Cleveland, Ohio, have been primary mentors for his spiritual formation. The founder of Unashamed Media Group, a justice centered, faith-based agency committed to producing and curating stories to inspire the heart and challenge the mind, Dr. Moss is the recipient of a 2016 NAACP Image award for his work, which includes providing biblical context and theological support to a myriad of groups and causes, including the #BlackLivesMatter and the #Occupy movements. His earlier publications include: Redemption in a Red Light District, and The Gospel According to the Wiz: And Other Sermons from Cinema. He co-authored The Gospel Re-Mix; How to Reach the Hip-Hop Generation with three other contributors, and Preach! The Power and Purpose Behind Our Praise, with his father.  He is married to his college sweetheart, the former Monica Brown of Orlando, Florida, a Spelman College and Columbia University graduate. They are the proud parents of two creative and humorous children, Elijah Wynton and Makayla Elon. Learn more about your ad choices.

We've got back to back hits from the archives for you to enjoy in the meantime. New episodes return Feb 5th.  Becoming Brave with Dr. Brenda Salter Mcneil (ARCHIVES):  What a special guest we have on the podcast today! If you are familiar with the conversation about reconciliation and justice in the church, you won’t get very far without hearing the name, the Rev. Dr. Brenda Salter Mcneil.  Dr. Brenda Salter McNeil is a dynamic speaker, author, professor and reconciliation thought leader. Her mission is to inspire, equip and empower the next generation of Christian leaders to be practitioners of reconciliation. Dr. Brenda is an international trailblazer, leading individuals, communities, and organizations to biblical reconciliation. She was featured as one of the 50 most influential women to watch by Christianity Today in 2012. She is the author of Roadmap to Reconciliation 2.0, A Credible Witness: Reflections on Power, Evangelism and Race (2008), and The Heart of Racial Justice: How Soul Change Leads to Social Change (2005), coauthored with Rick Richardson. Her newest book Becoming Brave: Finding the Courage to Pursue Racial Justice Now is available August 2020. Becoming Brave offers a distinctly Christian framework for addressing systemic injustice. It challenges Christians to be everyday activists who become brave enough to break the silence and work with others to dismantle systems of injustice and inequality. Looking through the lens of the biblical narrative of Esther, McNeil challenges Christian reconcilers to recognize the particular pain in our world so they can work together to repair what is broken while maintaining a deep hope in God’s ongoing work for justice. This book provides education and prophetic inspiration for every person who wants to take reconciliation seriously. Learn more about your ad choices.

Safe to say many of us have experiences with interstitial betrayal. Like when an institution says one thing but does another. Or maybe having certain requirements initially that change when certain people want to gain access. Or making certain promises that look good from the outside that might be a bit different once you get inside. Should we just be done with institutions all together or is there a better way forward? That’s the topic on this week’s Pass The Mic.  Jemar Tisby and Tyler Burns are recording in front of a LIVE audience at the Temple University’s Center For Anti-Racism in Philadelphia, PA on this week’s Pass The Mic Podcast.

Or making certain promises that look good from the outside that might be a bit different once you get inside. Should we just be done with institutions all together or is there a better way forward? That’s the topic on this week’s Pass The Mic.  Jemar Tisby and Tyler Burns are recording in front of a LIVE audience at the Temple University’s Center For Anti-Racism in Philadelphia, PA on this week’s Pass The Mic Podcast.

Dr. Otis Moss III</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/pass-the-mic-rev-dr-otis-moss-iii--62398932</link><description><![CDATA[With civil rights advocacy in his DNA, Rev. Dr. Otis Moss III built his ministry on community advancement and social justice activism. As Senior Pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, Illinois, Dr. Moss spent the last two decades practicing and preaching a Black theology that unapologetically calls attention to the problems of mass incarceration, environmental justice, and economic inequality.  Dr. Moss is part of a new generation of ministers committed to preaching a prophetic message of love and justice, which he believes are inseparable companions that form the foundation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He was recently recognized as one of the “12 Most Effective Preachers in the English-Speaking World” by Baylor University’s George W. Truett Theological Seminary. As part of his community engagement through Trinity United Church of Christ, Dr. Moss led the team that came up with the “My Life Matters” curriculum; which includes the viral video, “Get Home Safely: 10 Rules of Survival” created in the aftermath of Michael Brown’s death at the hands of Ferguson, Missouri police. Dr. Moss was named to the inaugural Root 100, a list that “recognizes emerging and established African-American leaders who are making extraordinary contributions,” according to the publication’s website. Honorees range between ages 25 to 45 and their accomplishments and successes transcend media headlines or statistics. With a unique gift to communicate across generations, Dr. Moss’ creative Bible-based messages have inspired young and old alike. His intergenerational preaching gift has made Dr. Moss a popular speaker on college campuses, at conferences, and churches across the globe. He is highly influenced by the works of Zora Neale Hurston, August Wilson, Howard Thurman, Jazz, and Hip-Hop music. The work and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and the pastoral ministry of his father, Rev. Dr. Otis Moss, Jr. of Cleveland, Ohio, have been primary mentors for his spiritual formation. The founder of Unashamed Media Group, a justice centered, faith-based agency committed to producing and curating stories to inspire the heart and challenge the mind, Dr. Moss is the recipient of a 2016 NAACP Image award for his work, which includes providing biblical context and theological support to a myriad of groups and causes, including the #BlackLivesMatter and the #Occupy movements. His earlier publications include: Redemption in a Red Light District, and The Gospel According to the Wiz: And Other Sermons from Cinema. He co-authored The Gospel Re-Mix; How to Reach the Hip-Hop Generation with three other contributors, and Preach! The Power and Purpose Behind Our Praise, with his father. He is married to his college sweetheart, the former Monica Brown of Orlando, Florida, a Spelman College and Columbia University graduate. They are the proud parents of two creative and humorous children, Elijah Wynton and Makayla Elon. Learn more about your ad choices.

Finally, Jemar discusses some reasons why Black and white people should commemorate and celebrate Juneteenth in different ways.

They discuss shame, learning and unlearning, patterns of growth, and some perspective about what’s happening in this season of our lives. If you’re in the wilderness, please know you are not alone. Many are walking through the same thing you are.   ******************************** What is #LeaveLOUD?  In 2018, the New York Times published an article tiled: A Quiet Exodus: Why Black Worshipers Are Leaving White Evangelical Churches that chronicled the plight of Black Christians who quietly exited their churches after their pastors and fellow believers failed to denounce state-sanctioned violence against Black people, white Christian Nationalism, systemic racism, and everyday bigotry. Since that time, things have gotten worse, not better.  In recent months, we’ve seen a surge of Black leaders and congregants in predominantly white or multiethnic churches and Christian spaces decide that it’s time for them to go. We bear witness to the hurt, harm, and frustration that our siblings have experienced. Enough is enough. It’s time to #LeaveLOUD  To #LeaveLOUD is to tell our stories, to name things for what they are, to take back the dignity we’ve lost while being in institutions that don’t value the fullness of the image of God within us, and to go where we are celebrated and not just tolerated.  For the next several weeks, we will be sharing stories of Black Christians who have made the decision to #LeaveLOUD. We will also be providing thoughtful analysis, words of wisdom, and resources for those who have already left or who are discerning whether they should #LeaveLOUD.

Returning from his brief hiatus, Jemar and Tyler give you the official explainer of what #LeaveLOUD really is and who it is for. We know you have questions, so we’re taking time to answer as many as we can. We answer the questions:  -Are we saying all Black people HAVE to leave? -Are we leaving Jesus behind? -Are we giving up on white people? -Where do we go from here?  This is an old school PTM episode, filled with laughing and preaching. It’s good to have Jemar back!  *********  In 2018, the New York Times published an article tiled: A Quiet Exodus: Why Black Worshipers Are Leaving White Evangelical Churches that chronicled the plight of Black Christians who quietly exited their churches after their pastors and fellow believers failed to denounce state-sanctioned violence against Black people, white Christian Nationalism, systemic racism, and everyday bigotry. Since that time, things have gotten worse, not better.  In recent months, we’ve seen a surge of Black leaders and congregants in predominantly white or multiethnic churches and Christian spaces decide that it’s time for them to go. We bear witness to the hurt, harm, and frustration that our siblings have experienced. Enough is enough. It’s time to #LeaveLOUD  To #LeaveLOUD is to tell our stories, to name things for what they are, to take back the dignity we’ve lost while being in institutions that don’t value the fullness of the image of God within us, and to go where we are celebrated and not just tolerated.  For the next several weeks, we will be sharing stories of Black Christians who have made the decision to #LeaveLOUD. We will also be providing thoughtful analysis, words of wisdom, and resources for those who have already left or who are discerning whether they should #LeaveLOUD.

Are multiethnic churches truly safe spaces for Black women? What happens when Black women #LeaveLoud? Ally had to courageously confront these questions during her time in white evangelicalism. What changed? What did she learn? This is her journey as only she can tell it. This is Ally Henny’s #LeaveLOUD story.   *********  In 2018, the New York Times published an article tiled: A Quiet Exodus: Why Black Worshipers Are Leaving White Evangelical Churches that chronicled the plight of Black Christians who quietly exited their churches after their pastors and fellow believers failed to denounce state-sanctioned violence against Black people, white Christian Nationalism, systemic racism, and everyday bigotry. Since that time, things have gotten worse, not better.  In recent months, we’ve seen a surge of Black leaders and congregants in predominantly white or multiethnic churches and Christian spaces decide that it’s time for them to go. We bear witness to the hurt, harm, and frustration that our siblings have experienced. Enough is enough. It’s time to #LeaveLOUD  To #LeaveLOUD is to tell our stories, to name things for what they are, to take back the dignity we’ve lost while being in institutions that don’t value the fullness of the image of God within us, and to go where we are celebrated and not just tolerated.  For the next several weeks, we will be sharing stories of Black Christians who have made the decision to #LeaveLOUD. We will also be providing thoughtful analysis, words of wisdom, and resources for those who have already left or who are discerning whether they should #LeaveLOUD.

Thomason</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/permission-to-be-black-with-a-d-thomason--62399018</link><description><![CDATA[As we begin Black History Month, we are releasing a special interview about our willingness to be ourselves regardless of what society says. Our guest today is writer, activist, and speaker A.D. Thomason. A.D. is on to speak about his new book Permission to Be Black.   AD is a three time award winning filmmaker and Co-founder of 3Strandfilms (read and view films here NOTOFTHEM.COM). Adam is an adjunct professor at Kilns College where he teaches on the History of Human rights and justice, De-colonizing your faith, filmmaking and more.  He’s with us today to speak about his new book: Permission to Be Black: My Journey with Jay-Z and Jesus.   “Throughout American history, Black people were not given the freedom to acknowledge their suffering. A. D. Thomason believes that the Holy Spirit brings freedom and liberation as we're able to name our pain, recognize its roots in history and society, and seek healing.  While many saw a confident, six-foot-five Black man, A. D. "Lumkile" Thomason lived most of his life in fear and anguish, deeply wounded by encounters with violence, abandonment, and family tragedy.   A. D. uses his artistry as a poet and storyteller to share how he confessed his internalized pain and embraced the liberating joy of Christ. He writes for millennials, emerging adults, and anyone else who's ready to acknowledge the reality of racial trauma and our need to confront it. His powerful story gives you permission to be Black, to be Christian, and to be the person God has made you to be.”   ALSO, don’t forget to send in your thoughts on the Movie Soul!

Our guest today is writer, activist, and speaker A.D. Thomason. A.D. is on to speak about his new book Permission to Be Black.   AD is a three time award winning filmmaker and Co-founder of 3Strandfilms (read and view films here NOTOFTHEM.COM). Adam is an adjunct professor at Kilns College where he teaches on the History of Human rights and justice, De-colonizing your faith, filmmaking and more.  He’s with us today to speak about his new book: Permission to Be Black: My Journey with Jay-Z and Jesus.   “Throughout American history, Black people were not given the freedom to acknowledge their suffering. A. D. Thomason believes that the Holy Spirit brings freedom and liberation as we're able to name our pain, recognize its roots in history and society, and seek healing.  While many saw a confident, six-foot-five Black man, A. D. "Lumkile" Thomason lived most of his life in fear and anguish, deeply wounded by encounters with violence, abandonment, and family tragedy.   A. D. uses his artistry as a poet and storyteller to share how he confessed his internalized pain and embraced the liberating joy of Christ. He writes for millennials, emerging adults, and anyone else who's ready to acknowledge the reality of racial trauma and our need to confront it. His powerful story gives you permission to be Black, to be Christian, and to be the person God has made you to be.”   ALSO, don’t forget to send in your thoughts on the Movie Soul!

In honor of the famed civil rights icon who is often whitewashed, often sanitized, often vilified; we have a special treat for you. On April 16, 1963, Dr. King wrote a lengthy letter to a coalition of white clergymen from a narrow jail cell in Birmingham, after being arrested by the police for nonviolent direct action. What he wrote eventually became one of the greatest pieces of writing every penned in English.  For today’s episode, our Host Tyler Burns reads the entire speech for you. If you’ve never heard it read audibly, here is your chance! Gather your family around, put this episode on during your daily commute or workout, and hear the powerful words/arguments of Dr. King.   Also! By request of one of our listeners, we will be doing a review of the polarizing Pixar film “Soul”. But...we need your help. We want to have a conversation with YOU. If you’re Black and you have strong feelings (positive or negative), questions, or comments about Soul, we want to hear from you! We want you to send us an audio recording of your thoughts. Here are the details:   Share your first name  Share where you’re listening from (as much as you feel comfortable)  Share your opinion!

And also, our favorite episode(s) of the year! Every year, we recap our favorite “cultural artifacts”. These can be books, albums, people, movies, TV shows, events….ANYTHING that got us through the year. There’s only one catch: these items do NOT have to come out this year. They just have to be consumed this year.   Creating this list helps us to commemorate how we’ve grown and what has helped us get through.

If you are familiar with the conversation about reconciliation and justice in the church, you won’t get very far without hearing the name, the Rev. Dr. Brenda Salter Mcneil.   Dr. Brenda Salter McNeil is a dynamic speaker, author, professor and reconciliation thought leader. Her mission is to inspire, equip and empower the next generation of Christian leaders to be practitioners of reconciliation.   Dr. Brenda is an international trailblazer, leading individuals, communities, and organizations to biblical reconciliation. She was featured as one of the 50 most influential women to watch by Christianity Today in 2012.   She is the author of Roadmap to Reconciliation 2.0, A Credible Witness: Reflections on Power, Evangelism and Race (2008), and The Heart of Racial Justice: How Soul Change Leads to Social Change (2005), coauthored with Rick Richardson. Her newest book Becoming Brave: Finding the Courage to Pursue Racial Justice Now is available August 2020.  Becoming Brave offers a distinctly Christian framework for addressing systemic injustice. It challenges Christians to be everyday activists who become brave enough to break the silence and work with others to dismantle systems of injustice and inequality.  Looking through the lens of the biblical narrative of Esther, McNeil challenges Christian reconcilers to recognize the particular pain in our world so they can work together to repair what is broken while maintaining a deep hope in God’s ongoing work for justice. This book provides education and prophetic inspiration for every person who wants to take reconciliation seriously. Learn more about your ad choices.

Tyler has the honor of interviewing powerhouse theologian and author, Dr. Willie Jennings. This episode is filled with powerful insights that will strike uncomfortably close to home.   For the uninitiated, Dr. Willie Jennings is an Associate Professor of Systematic Theology and Africana Studies at Yale Divinity School. Writing in the areas of liberation theologies, cultural identities, and anthropology, Jennings has authored more than 40 scholarly essays and nearly two-dozen reviews. He is in high demand as a speaker and is widely recognized as a major figure in theological education across North America.  He is the author of the book The Christian Imagination: Theology and the Origins of Race (Yale 2010), which won the American Academy of Religion Award of Excellence in the Study of Religion in the Constructive-Reflective category the year after it appeared and, is considered by many to be a “theological masterpiece.” His commentary on the Book of Acts, titled Acts: A Commentary, The Revolution of the Intimate (for the Belief Series, Westminster/John Knox) received the Reference Book of the Year Award from The Academy of Parish Clergy in 2018.  His latest book and the subject of our interview today is entitled After Whiteness: An Education in Belonging  From the book’s description:  “Theological education has always been about formation: first of people, then of communities, then of the world. If we continue to promote whiteness and its related ideas of masculinity and individualism in our educational work, it will remain diseased and thwart our efforts to heal the church and the world. But if theological education aims to form people who can gather others together through border-crossing pluralism and God-drenched communion, we can begin to cultivate the radical belonging that is at the heart of God’s transformative work.”  Learn more about your ad choices.

Jemar and Tyler had the privilege of recording this podcast during our LIVE “Free To Be” Juneteenth Event. Our guest is the incomparable Rev.

He is the Senior Pastor of the historic Watson Grove Baptist Church in Nashville, Tennessee, and one of the premier voices for justice and equity in the Black Church.  Our topic today is a spin-off from his current sermon series at The Grove, entitled Not My Jesus: Reclaiming the Messiah from ‘Merica”. This is a LANDMARK podcast episode. Listen twice and digest it all, then share it with your friends!

Jemar and Tyler are back to tackle the elephant in the room. Tune in for a candid conversation on the history of abortion views in the American church, the problems with the church’s approach to the conversation, and what a prophetic imagination ultimately looks like.

Henson and Sam Rockwell. The film chronicles the unlikely relationship between Civil Rights activist Ann Atwater and KKK leader C.P.  Ellis. After watching the film, Tyler had mixed feelings about its framework and messaging. He decided to get to the bottom of Ann Atwater’s life by talking to someone who knew her personally. Following the controversial Best Picture Oscar win of the movie Green Book, we felt it would be helpful to have a deeper conversation about the framing of these stories.   Listen as we have a discussion with Jonathan Wilson Hartgrove about the real story of Ann Atwater. Jonathan is the Director of The School for Conversion, an education center that Ann Atwater devoted her time to as a freedom teacher, mentoring young activists on the principles of freedom organizing for change. You might have heard of Jonathan’s name in connection with the Reverend Dr. William Barber. He worked with Dr. Barber on the reclamation of Poor People’s Campaign, and co-authored a book with him called “The Third Reconstruction”. Jonathan’s most recent book is entitled “Reconstructing the Gospel: Finding Freedom from Slaveholder Religion”.

What would reperational work look like in a city like Memphis? How can people in the African diaspora who subscribe to Christian teachings honor their ancestry and reconcile the complex historical narrative that includes the introduction of Christianity through oppression (how can you trust the theology of a slaveholder)? How would you explain the intersection of gender and faith in the midst of the gender revolution? Racism is a problem within the white church that is avoided and labeled a liberal narrative, thoughts for engaging Christians who are steep in willful ignorance? What are Tyler’s thoughts on the Black Panther villains? (follow up to the Truth’s Table crossover) How do you respond to people of color who deny the existence of systemic injustice and white supremacy?

What would reperational work look like in a city like Memphis? How can people in the African diaspora who subscribe to Christian teachings honor their ancestry and reconcile the complex historical narrative that includes the introduction of Christianity through oppression (how can you trust the theology of a slaveholder)? How would you explain the intersection of gender and faith in the midst of the gender revolution? Racism is a problem within the white church that is avoided and labeled a liberal narrative, thoughts for engaging Christians who are steep in willful ignorance? What are Tyler’s thoughts on the Black Panther villains? (follow up to the Truth’s Table crossover) How do you respond to people of color who deny the existence of systemic injustice and white supremacy? What do you say to a person who says justice is only for heaven?
