Humbled to be invited to Myrina Kate Robinson's digital roundtable to discuss the spiritual health of the Church in the United States of America - specifically around fear, prejudice, racism. My fellow panelists and I, who all self-identify as white Christians, will be asked to talk about daily practice overcoming pride (racism) in order to be anti-racist. We'll all examine approaching the conversation of racism within (white) Christendom by starting with how racism affects one's spiritual well being, and hopefully provide insight on how the universal Church can be a site of healing. Should be a good conversation!

The event is FREE. Register here.
