Missouri Net News [link removed] De-Colonizing the Church: A Commitment to Anti-Racism
A team of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of color) pastors and church planters with United Methodist Discipleship Ministries have developed a five-week webinar in the hopes that judicatory leaders, pastors, and laity could learn more about the inherent racism in the church and commit to de-colonize The United Methodist Church in America. Leading scholars and practitioners in the field of anti-racism will be guiding us on this journey as we explore the following topics:
Week 1: The Theology of Racism
Week 2: Embodied Racism
Week 3: Racism in the UMC
Week 4: De-Colonizing Church Planting
Week 5: Anti-Racism
The webinar is $125. Join this five-week event every Thursday beginning February 18. [link removed] [link removed] .
