Summary

Tyler and Jemar broadcast live and answer the following questions sent in from the audience: What eschatological hope do you have for the future of multi-ethnic churches? 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? Asked but not answered: “That Star Wars Trailer Thou!” Learn more how you can get social and support the show at PassTheMicPodcast.com Episode 176 Original Airdate: Oct 23 2017 Support this podcast on patreon at www.patreon.com/PassTheMic Hosts: Jemar Tisby (twitter.com/JemarTisby) Tyler Burns (twitter.com/Burns23) Producer: Beau York (twitter.com/TheRealBeauYork) Lean More: Pass The Mic - www.PassTheMicPodcast.com (twitter.com/_PassTheMic) RAAN - www.RAANetwork.org (twitter.com/RAANetwork) Special Thanks To: Podastery - www.podastery.com (twitter.com/Podastery) Learn more about your ad choices.
