Hey, everybody, welcome to Ask Me Anything.

I want to let you know that we originally planned to release these two podcasts as two separate podcasts, one a week after the other.

One was kind of diving into understanding critical race theory and then the second one about how to have conversations about it.

And as Pastor J.D. and I recorded and thought about it, we really felt like instead of waiting a week to release one,

we just felt like they really kind of belonged together and were really two parts of the same

conversation.

And so we're actually just releasing two podcasts on the same week together.

And so we would definitely encourage you to listen to both of them back to back because they really are two sides of the same week together. So we would definitely encourage you to listen to both of them back to back

because they really are two sides of the same coin

and the second one is an extension of the first one.

So just wanted to let you guys know before we hopped in.

Honest questions, quick answers. We're definitely going to lean into the honest questions part

of this one today the quick answers i don't know unless you've been living under a rock somewhere

in in the christian world you know that the conversation around crt is uh raging it's raging

raging out there if so if you don't know what we're talking about, pause, search my name on Twitter and just

look at the comments.

And so CRT stands for Critical Race Theory.

And, J.D., the question we have today, I think, is a good one.

What should Christians know about critical race theory?

Yeah, so part of the problem, Matt, is that when people say critical race theory,

they mean different things by it, functionally speaking.
