Krispin Mayfield joins Amy Fritz for a conversation inspired by a tweet: “Has anyone ever stayed at a church to make a change. . . ?”The decision to stay or leave is full of nuance and situational specific issues. Krispin brings up some things to consider when making this decision. What kind of influence do you have? How much time are you willing to invest? What's the history of the leadership? Do you have the margin to do this? What message are you sending by staying or leaving?Mayfield also draws on his research in the area of attachment theory and how that impacts our relationship to organizations.Topics:What's your motivation? [00:02:38]What needs to be in place to have a fighting chance for change? [00:04:23]What do you do if leadership says they are open to change, but nothing seems to change?

Thursday (10/8) Noon Check-In with Pastor John Embrace Church, Lexington, KY Join Pastor John for a talk about an important insight from Drew Hart’s book, Trouble I’ve Seen: Changing the Way the Church Views Racism. Hart's advice to white people in the dominant cultural group: Don’t trust your gut when dealing with issues of race. Quote: “Discipleship is the cure for dominant cultural blinders that leave people’s intuition and vision impaired and unreliable. Not going with your gut, when it is socialized by dominant culture, and moving toward counterintuitive solidarity with the oppressed, must be understood as a Christian discipline, as necessary a practice for Christian formation as is praying, gathering in Christian community, reading Scripture, sharing resources, worshiping, and giving thanks. The Spirit of Jesus Christ is drawing all of us to see things ‘from below.” (Drew Hart, Trouble I've Seen: Changing the Way the Church Views Racism, page 96)

Drew Hart grew up and went to school in areas with a largely white population, but it wasn't until he started attending a Christian college that he really started feeling like people viewed him as an other. It's his experience with white supremacy brought into sharp focus through the lens of the Church that he writes about in his book, Trouble I've Seen: Changing the Way the Church Views Racism. In this interview, he talks about the historical and cultural oppression brought on by the proliferation of the image of the "whitened Jesus," how we should be responding to the truly radical love of Christ, and what hope he sees teaching young minds at the same college that opened his eyes to the insidious influence of white supremacy.

Continuing the conversation on racism, whiteness, and the Church, we're excited to share a recent dialog with Dr. Drew Hart and Sarah Fe Harris, joining us from Harrisburg, PA. Drew is the author of Trouble I've Seen: Changing the Way the Church Views Racism. In this four-way conversation, Drew and Sarah Fe lead us towards a rethinking our racialized culture, "white Jesus," how whiteness affects worship, and how to engage these real issues in a local church context.  References: Drew Hart website Drew on Twitter - @DruHart Sarah Fe Harris on Twitter - @sarahfeharris  

I believe it was the great philosopher James Van Der Beek who once said "I don't want yur laafe." What James was really looking for was something that would change his own life, rather than blindly following the path that was laid out for him in that one-horse football town where he hacked a computer and started a countdown to nuclear war. So I might have fallen asleep when that movie was on and woken up during Wargames. Which, you know, is a pretty good movie too. This podcast is about the 1983 film Wargames, or possibly the 1999 film Varsity Blues. It's actually about neither of those, but it's worth a listen nonetheless. I guess. Now I just wanna go watch Wargames. They should remake that with Van Der Beek in the Dabney Coleman part. That'd be sweet.
