Living in Babylon: A Christian Response to Racial Tension

Today we’re continuing our series Living In Babylon, and discovering what it means to be living as exiles (resident aliens) on this earth as God's children. In this message, we are excited to be able have a conversation with Pastor John Schmidtke and Pastor Gerard Boling, two pastors from one of our Mission Partners, Bethlehem Lutheran Church. Needless to say, the events in the news during this last month have highlighted the ongoing challenges associated with George Floyd's death at the hands of a police officer. How are Christians to respond to the tensions connected with racism and racial inequality? What does it mean to be able to "do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly" before our God?
