So, let’s talk about it.. the racial inequality in our country is something we all have a front-row seat to right now. So, we pushed some episode ideas back for a couple of weeks because we wanted to have a straight discussion about these important things going on. We want to face the issues and discuss how we can navigate these difficult waters with wisdom. KJ and Cambri Washington are a beautiful mixed race couple that go to First Baptist Church of Owasso. We asked if we could get their perspective on some things, and they were kindly willing to do that. We talk about what it was like for them dating, and how they have experienced systemic racism; we talk about the police, and yes, we go all those places. This couple is so wise and honest! Something Cambri says we should be doing is to listen, believe the stories, make it personal, and empathize with others. We know this is a hot button for a lot of people right now and our goal is to have real, honest conversations about how to see God in the midst of the messes in our world. He is working through our struggles.
