Racial Reconciliation within the Church

Jul 12, 2021    Episode 114
On Daily Faith, we have a tremendous show today about understanding the racial divide and the need for reconciliation within the church in America, Jesus’s way. Joining us to share his story of pastoring the ups and down’s of a multiethnic and multicultural church is Pastor Ray Washington. He is the lead pastor of East Lake Community Church in Irmo, South Carolina. Pastor Ray has been ministering for over twenty years, but it wasn’t until 2018 that the Lord called his family to move to South Carolina to help the church grow in grace and unity. As the volunteer elder for the church, he later became the first nominated black candidate for the pastoral position at East Lake Community. The Scriptures says in Mark 3:25, “And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.” Pastor Ray would like to share relevant and insightful steps on how to walk and grow in grace in a racially divided country. As men and women of God, we are called to be the body of Christ, where every part is necessary and valuable in God’s Kingdom. It’s time to stand up for what we believe and not give in to the powers of darkness. In His kingdom, He is preparing a table in the presence of the enemy that will host every tribe and every nation for His purpose.
