  • How challenging and sometimes confusing Bible passages and stories can be best understood to champion equality for ethnically diverse people and women
  • Ways believers can bring real and lasting change to our culture's pervasive racial, ethnic, and gender equality issues by following Jesus' and his followers' examples
