Faith Talks on Tough Conversations
United Women in Faith has never shied from facing hard truths, helping folks be real, heal, and act with justice.
Join our Faith Talks community to hold space for the way of racial justice and the people, movements, and moments that define us as we heal historical and current injustices.
Register here.
We will talk to and learn from three trailblazers: the Executive for Racial Justice of United Women in Faith, Emily Jones; retired United Methodist pastor John Elford, author of Our Hearts Were Strangely Lukewarm: The American Methodist Church and the Struggle with White Supremacy; and songwriter and podcast host Lisa Sharon Harper, author of Fortune: How Race Broke My Family And The World–And How To Repair It All.
We’ll share our truths and open dialogues, without which we cannot grow. We’ll discuss the leaders who’ve broken through silences and how our healing of brokenness leads to positive action and community participation. We’ll touch on ‘cancel’ culture and how to have meaningful conversations on incendiary topics, whether we are in a church coffee hour or at a family dinner.
