Welcome to the Re-Weav podcast with Mitchele Anderson. Where we discuss what it means to weave racial unity in God’s community, sharing resources and stories to guide us on this journey. My name is Mitchele & I’m so glad you’re here.
We are continuing the series Through Their Eyes || Believing While Black. For the next several weeks we will be hearing the testimonies of fellow brothers and sisters in Christ from the black community, or more accurately the African diaspora. The African diaspora refers to a diverse global collection of communities that are made up of sub-Saharan Africans or descendants of sub-Saharan Africans.
In each conversation we discuss identity, racism, faith, growth, & hope. We know that no cultural or ethnic group is monolithic. And still, I hope this series will provide you with an understanding of the experiences of our Black brothers and sisters in Christ. I pray that your hearts are soft and your ears are open to the possibility of a shift in perspective.
I recorded this interview in June of 2020, shortly after the death of George Floyd. I am grateful that my guest was open about their personal history and honest about their hurt as well as their hope.
In today’s episode I sit down with my friend Skip Moody. Skip is a husband and a father of, wait for it,... 5 children. Skip, like myself, was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest. His upbringing was an interesting one. He lived in a White community, went to church in a Black church and grew up in a multiethnic family. As a result, Skip has a unique and refreshing perspective.
Skip’s wife, and my good friend, Danielle was in the room with us. So, if you hear a third laugh at any point, that is her not the Holy Spirit. Though I’m sure He was in the room too. ;-)
Ok, let’s get into today’s conversation.
