Religious War Alex and Katie

We have our first ever guest! We hear from Ernest Cleo Grant II, a pastor in Camden, New Jersey with a PhD from Stockton University who has written for publications like Christianity Today and Desiring God, about some of the struggles faced by his church during the pandemic and after the George Floyd Protests. We talk about our favourite bible verses and hear what Ernie he says about being a Christian during these times, and how white Christians can do better in supporting Black people in America.

Everyone has heard of the Black Lives Matter movement and knows about the political unrest currently happening in our world. As Christians, how should we respond to a movement like this? How can we tell where there is true injustice happening? And what should we do about it? What does being a Christian mean in an era of BLM, protests, and seeking justice? It's a much more serious topic than usual, but Alex and Katie try to answer these questions and more on this week’s episode of Religious War.
