Keith's message from 2/13/2022 is available on all our normal platforms, but we wanted to ensure that the dialogue we had as part of our Q and Eh time was also available to those who requested it. While our post-message dialogue is always helpful and insightful, the conversation after this particular message really set a tone and encapsulated where we hope the message moves us. Below is the full message and the dialogue.
In December 2021, the LifePath Vision Team directed the formation of a time-limited Task Force on Racial Justice. The aim of this Task Force is to explore blind spots in the church and to recommend ways LifePath can continue to grow in racial justice, both in how we act and work.
To inform these recommendations, the Task Force would like to hear your thoughts and experiences on the topic of racial inequality and how LifePath can pursue racial equity. We invite all members of our community to contribute, regardless of how long you have been with us or your view on the topic. You can provide input through writing (via survey) or a one-on-one conversation with a Task Force member (Zoom, phone, or in-person). Either method takes approximately 15 minutes, and your responses will be kept confidential. For more details -- and to contribute your thoughts -- please see the form linked below (available in both English and Spanish). For more information and to contribute your thoughts: English-Language Form Formulario en Español Thank you for contributing to this effort, LifePath Task Force on Racial Justice Amanda Levering Britt Hernandez Ian Yue Lenin Hernandez Lori Kellogg Rob Seward What: A discipleship course (companion to the Emotionally Healthy Spirituality course we did in the fall of 2020, but you don't need to have completed EHS to join us for EHR!)

(Sessions will be recorded and available to watch at a later time, if you have to miss one or two.) How much: Nothing! LifePath will cover the cost of materials.
