Find the show notes at transformingmission.org/003 What is your grace story?   Or maybe you call it a God story. Whatever you call it, God's grace is present in your life. The question is, how is God offering Christ to us? And how are we sharing the grace we receive with others? This episode we explore another aspect of a disciple-making pathway, offering Christ. As you'll hear, we're talking about more than activity. We're inviting you into a way of life that shares the love of Jesus with others in the way we live. Here are a few questions to help you reflect on God's grace in your life: What experience did you have with Jesus this week? How has God’s love become real in your life? Where have you witnessed the light of Christ? What had been your experience of God’s love? How has it made a difference in your living? In your relationship with others outside your church? Inside your church? How has your church helped you experience Jesus? God’s love? To related to others?

Hey Sistas, Join Abby Perry and me for our second episode of My Sista's Keeper: Shalom in the City's Monthly Conversation on Race and Unity. This month we're exploring the idea of hopefully resisting division.  When it comes to racial reconciliation conversations, what words seem to make us aware of division unlike any other? You got it, race/racism/racist. As challenging as those words are to discuss, we think it's worth it to really press in to what they mean in order to have a common, working definition as we go forward. So, on this episode, we're diving deep and getting all kinds of uncomfortable as we look at how race and racism operate in the world today. And we promise you, every word we say and question we ask - it's all in the name of peacemaking.  We'll be honest with you, this episode had us pretty sweaty! We share stories, ask questions, and speak truths that we are confident are necessary for bringing about true Shalom in racial reconciliation. It's a deep one, but we think it's a good, too.  We want to know what you thought about this episode and what this conversation has you thinking about: Come join us on Facebook at the Shalom Sistas’ Hangout and share your thoughts!

For my Black Sistas: Pick one white friend you have who has shown interest in this conversation and pray for her.  Pray that God gives her courage, that he gives you compassion, and that he provides opportunities for you both to talk about your experiences with race.    Want more Shalom in your life?  Follow Shalom in the City on Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest @shalominthecity.You can find me, Osheta Moore on Twitter @osheta, Instagram @oshetam and Pinterest.
