Next Episode: Female Sexuality Matters ft. Michael & Connie Smith

On this episode of the Walking Well podcast, Lisa Watterson and I continue a candid conversation about being black or white in America. Lisa shares about how she personally has worked to push back on white supremacist messaging, the sometimes discomfort of crossing the racial divide, and how she learned to listen. Becoming better is no easy feat for any of us, especially when the machine of racism is so very alive and well. Let us listen to one another, see one another, and dare to show up not just different but better for each other. Just like Jesus did.
