    Common Good Faith - February 10

    Common Good Faith - February 10

    Common Good Faith - Wednesday February 10, 2021

    Today on Common Good Faith, our hosts dig into Galatians 3 and how it is often used to erase diversity rather than bring about justice and genuine Christ-centered unity. Also under the microscope is the Bruce Springsteen Jeep Super Bowl commercial calling for Americans to “meet in the middle” and how it is a call for false unity that centers color-blindness and erases a long history of white supremacy.


    Notes and resources:

    The oft-misused Galatians 3: “There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”

    Doing Justice by Dominique Gilliard

    Common Good News - February 8

    Common Good News - February 8

    On today's show, our host Doug Pagitt is joined by author and pastor Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove to talk about how the January 6th insurrection, fueled by Christian Nationalism, was 40 years in the making.



    In his book Revolution of Values, Jonathan explores how religious culture wars have misrepresented Christianity at the expense of the poor, and how listening to marginalized communities can help us hear God's call to love and justice in the world. He highlights people on the frontlines of issues ranging from immigration policy and voting rights to women's rights and environmental stewardship.



    Jonathan directs the School for Conversion, a popular education center that works to make “surprising friendships possible.” He is also an Associate Minister at the historically black St. Johns Missionary Baptist Church.
