Listen "The Gospel, Race, and Heart Posture"
Episode Synopsis
Join us for an eye-opening conversation with Dr. Ben Mathew, a respected figure in counseling and theology, as we navigate the complex intersection of The Gospel and race at Ben Lippen School. Discover how Dr. Mathew’s multicultural upbringing shapes his unique approach to these sensitive discussions, emphasizing the critical role of heart posture and personal reflection. Learn how grounding our conversations in biblical truth, specifically Jude 3, can be a powerful unifying force, steering us away from political divides and towards a faith-driven dialogue.We explore the delicate balance between holding strong convictions and remaining adaptable, drawing inspiration from biblical figures like Jude and Paul. Through engaging metaphors, such as comparing our heart posture to Gumby and Stretch Armstrong, we illustrate the importance of staying grounded while being flexible. We uncover personal and communal growth opportunities by examining our initial reactions and encouraging honest self-reflection. This episode is a call to embrace God’s invitation to grow beyond our current state, aligning with the sanctification journey.Click here to share your questions about this episode with us. We will review responses to cover in an upcoming recording
