The “Do You See What I See? – How Race Relations Cause Us to See Things Differently” dialogue is scheduled as a webinar to be held from 10 a.m. until 12:00 pm (EST) on Saturday, July 25th. This online discussion is designed to equip us to see each other differently and have a greater appreciation for all of God’s people as we work in ministry and live in community together. If we can find a way to begin to see as Jesus does, we will be in a better position to affect change and reconciliation in ourselves and in our congregations, communities, families, and nations. We want to be able to help advance racial justice and equality, bringing hope to people of color who need to be assured that they are deserving of love, mercy, and justice.
