Bible reference(s): Luke 10:25-37

Does Christianity perpetuate racism?

The Black Lives Matter movement has laid bare some of the anger, frustration and injustice that minority groups have been feeling for a long time. For some Christianity is seen as one of the barriers to genuine racial reconciliation and progress. For others, Christianity is the problem itself.

This week at Bible Shots Aaron Johnstone will dive into some of the recent history regarding Christianity and racism. But more importantly we'll look at whether the Bible itself has created this climate, or whether it in fact can be the solution.

Not only does the Bible offer a great framework for understanding human nature and racism, but in Jesus himself he offers a global vision of hope, peace, forgiveness and reconciliation available to all.
