LTD Podcast E63: Our Forefathers were Jerks when it Comes to Race - an interview with Rebecca Mclaughlin by Pastor JD Greear (Part 2 of 4)

In this part 2 of the 4 part interview with Rebecca Mclaughlin by Pastor JD Greear, Rebecca discusses why white Christian segregationists in the 60s’ wrong interpretation of the Bible created real problems today  in terms of the direct injustice that has caused in American history, with white evangelicals using the Bible to justify their racism.  She says that it’s not because they were on the wrong side of history, it was that they were on the wrong side of the Scriptures. Find out more as they also talk about how we as Christians should really clearly see what the  bible  teaches and how we should model the New Testament Church, being one body, in pursuing love regardless of  racial and ethnic differences. 

In this episode:

• Why Rebecca describes our Forefathers a jerk when it comes to Racism
• The wrong side of Scripture when it came to racial discussions
• The problem with white Christian segregationists in the 60s and before that
• The picture of Jesus's love for his church
• The need to have a cultural change within our churches that will benefit all 
• The local church as the nuclear family in New Testament terms
• Reclaiming what the New Testament calls us: one body. 
• Being hopeful for the opportunity Christians have today to correct the mistakes of the past
