How do we bring forth a heart of redemption in the broken systems of this world? What is our responsibility as believers when it comes to healing the racial divide and systemic injustices? Latasha Morrison is passionate about helping Christians be at the forefront of racial healing. As an author, speaker, and founder of Be the Bridge, an equipping organization that helps individuals and groups in taking steps towards racial reconciliation, Lastasha has taught people what it means to confront the ways in which we as a culture and as a people have harmed others because of their race. Her work has brought both awareness and actionable ways for people to reach across racial lines and heal together. Her latest book, Brown Faces, White Spaces: Confronting Systemic Racism to Bring Healing and Restoration, looks at the ways in which our systems hold deeply entrenched beliefs that need to be rooted out so that there can be justice and fairness for all. In this conversation, Aubrey talks with Latasha about why it is so important to have a heart of reconciliation as believers, the way racism within systems continues to impact people to this day, and how our hope must remain in God and not people. If you've ever wondered if we can truly experience racial healing and reconciliation, this episode will encourage you that it is possible and that we each have a role and responsibility to step into this conversation with compassion, empathy, and a heart bent towards healing the racial division that exists.

The devil is using open borders to destroy the country And it's against our laws. When you use the word refugee and you're not using the word illegal immigrant, you're not recognizing the frustration. The frustration is we have to follow the laws. They don't. If we get pulled over for a DUI, we rightly go to jail. In separate countries like Washington, Oregon, and California. They don't. In California, people who grew up there are having to flee either economically or culturally to places like Texas economically because they can no longer afford a house. Illegal immigrants are being given $150,000 to purchase houses, and then they don't have to make mortgage payments according to one program. Please, if you are a Christian leader of note and you have an audience, what you say about illegal immigration in relation to the Word of God matters.We will also look at the racism of the WNBA. It is astounding particularly when it comes to Caitlin Clark. They hate white women and it shows. And, does anyone remember what joy feels like? Episode Links:I wish I knew this Pastor's name: his name is David PlattRussell Moore's guest, Latasha Morrison, says that Steven is an example of power structures being broken down. A mini-highlight reel of Caitlin Clark WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert needs to make it clear to teams this behavior won't be tolerated. Caitlin Clark has received almost 20% of the fouls in the league, 80% from the Chicago Sky. @CathyEngelbert needs to stop it or resign. “ESPN released its WNBA 2024 rookie rankings on Thursday. They have 7th round draft pick Angel Reese at No. 1 and 1st round draft pick Caitlin Clark at No. 2. I had to look up a side by side of their stats.

Today, we dive into the start of the Democratic National Convention, dissecting the abortion policies of the Democratic Party. With Planned Parenthood offering free abortions at the convention, we're digging into why it's so crucial to really understand the truth about abortion. It's time to focus on the actual policies, not just the personalities, when we're making our voting decisions. We also address the Evangelicals for Harris Zoom call, providing a critical analysis of the bad theology presented and why it doesn't align with our Christian faith.

Kansas City Chiefs Kicker, Harrison Butker, recently gave a controversial commencement address at Benedictine College where he drew on some popular conservative talking points about Pride Month, Covid 19 policies, and the calling of women in the home. Phil, Skye, and Kaitlyn discuss the problems they had with the speech, as well as their frustrations with some of the criticism of the speech, and how Butker's views seem to have been influenced more by conservative politics than the historic Catholic position on these issues. Then, Kaitlyn sits down with Latasha Morrison to talk about her new book, "Brown Faces, White Spaces." They discuss the importance of understanding historical context to grasp the roots and impacts of systemic racism, and practical ways that churches and individuals can engage in the work of racial reconciliation. Plus, a megachurch in Texas tried to manipulate a traffic study for a stop light, and Phil thinks he has proof that News of the Butt is the best part of the podcast.

Today we remember Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—we remember his dream, the progress for Civil Rights that he helped make possible, and we remember the tension he held between hope and reality. You may know him best for his “I have a dream” speech, but did you know he also said, “The dream had turned somewhat into a nightmare.”? My friend Latasha Morrison, bridge-builder and racial reconciler, is joining us to talk about how far we've come and how far we have yet to go— the hope and the nightmare we still see today. I believe this conversation is more important now that it was in 2020. Latasha helps us pull back the curtain on race in America over the last four years. You ready to jump in?
