Join Little Edwards along with Rich Villodas, Rebecca Y. Kim, Naima Lett, and Curtiss Paul DeYoung for a live discussion on the fruits and challenges of multiethnic congregations.

President Ronald Reagan said:
âI am deeply disappointed that, although a majority of the Senate voted for it, the school prayer amendment fell short.â
On September 25, 1982, Reagan said:
âUnfortunately, in the last two decades weâve experienced an onslaught of such twisted logic that if Alice were visiting America, she might think sheâd never left Wonderland. Weâre told that it somehow violates the rights of others to permit students in school who desire to pray to do so. Clearly this infringes on the freedom of those who choose to pray, the freedom taken for granted since the time of our Founding Fathers â¦â
Looking at Critical Race Theory through a missiologist s eyes. D.A. Horton Image: Canva
We are launching a series on Critical Race Theory. It’s an important conversation today, since many are using the description and meaning different things. At the Wheaton College Billy Graham Center, we are committed to help Christians know and engage the culture with biblical discernment, so we are launching a conversation with, well, different views. As Christians, we want to think through these things together, and the series will include not just one opinion, but several.
We started with a positive framing, and will include others who are more negative, and some in the middle. All will come from evangelicals. And, it is important that we hear from people of color, and, in this series, not all people of color will agree. It’s a conversation mature, Christ-like, and God-honoring. We hope it serves you and your church well.
