More than Diversity...We need INCLUSIVITY!! with Jonee Ripperger What is the Church To Do?

Today we have my friend Jonee Ripperger. She has quickly become a friend and ally in this work. She is a wife, artist, photographer, worship leader, animal lover, and a wonderful example of what it looks like to love your neighbor. Jonee and I have had the pleasure of doing some “Be The Bridge” work together, and it’s been an honor to work with her and see her heart. Which is why I am beyond excited to have her on today! Enjoy as Jonee shares what she's learned through Be The Bridge, the impact its had on her life, and what she wants others to know.
1. The church must acknowledge that racism exists.
2. We must admit that we have been implicit.
3. We must Lament.
4. We must educate through multiple resources.
