Midweek @ Midtown Study

It is not news to anyone that we are living in a time of conflict, division, and disagreement.  In politics, in religion, in education, in relationships and communities and churches, we are becoming people who can’t seem to find our way out of the “us vs. them” pit of divisiveness.  It doesn’t matter who you think is “us” and who is “them.” We all feel stuck.

It doesn’t have to be like this.  In the face of cracking communities and strained family dynamics, the church is uniquely equipped to bring healing, hope, and wholeness to a hurting world.  Ours is a faith built on hope, on the belief that we are all created in the image of God, on the assurance that no person or situation is beyond redemption.  We believe faith is not only believing in God, but also doing the work of God in the world.  We are the shining city on a hill and the world needs our light now more than ever.

The Dialogues On: Race offers us differing dialogues on race in America, helping unpack the issue and drive conversations. Join in the conversation for this seven-week discussion to turn conflict into community.
