Episode Synopsis

The Beatitudes Overcome Racism Part 3. “White Privilege.” We’ve heard the term, but what is it? What can be done about it?  Such a huge topic!  Hear how Barbara shares the very beginning of her understanding about it.  Where does our hope come from to overcome this aspect of racism?  As a solution, hear which attitude Jesus wants us to put on in Beatitude #3 - “Blessed are the meek.”
Bible verses: Matthew 5:5, 11:29, Proverbs 3:5,6, Matthew 5:14-16.
