Tonight, we switch our focus to the ongoing social frustration that has been touched off by the murder of George Floyd in the twin cities. For tonight’s guest, we have Michael Burns, one of the church leaders in the Minneapolis-St. Paul Church. Michael is in the middle of the ongoing protest in Minnesota and will give us an update on the church there, things he’s done to heal and repair some of the tensions that race relations bring up, and the work that needs to be completed in the future.
Scriptures quoted: Isa 30:10
