Online Curriculum on Racial Justice: ChurchNext 2016

“We hope that these classes help you and your congregation explore concepts of race and reasons for racial injustice in new, enlightening ways.”

 

 

 

Online Courses on Racial Justice
This Lent, ChurchNext, in partnership with Trinity Institute, is offering free online series on racial justice, for all who desire to journey deeper into faith. This series of five courses is based on Trinity Institute’s 2016 conference, Listen for a Change: Sacred Conversations for Racial Justice.

Potential Outcomes
It is the Church’s responsibility and its privilege to take a leadership role in building racial justice. As Bishop Curry teaches in his class, we must review our history, confront our mistakes with humility and courage, and work to turn our culture in a new direction. It is our responsibility, in short, to find the courage to rise up and follow God away from racial oppression, in the hope that others will follow us. We hope these courses help you and your congregation work effectively with the many people across our country who are striving to build a more just world.
