Issues related to race, racial tension, and racial injustice are fundamental to understanding the American story. We have an ugly past that has shaped our cultural narrative, and in many ways, it has been baked into the systems and structures of our society causing generations of non-white Americans to struggle for equality, acceptance, recognition, and representation. The struggle continues. And this struggle is often just as prevalent inside the church as outside.

Join us this week on the Page2Podcast as Greg interviews Allen Parr on issues of race in America. It’s a conversation worth overhearing between two friends who have had very different experiences because of their race but who love the church and love our country and desire to see healing as we all move forward together.

Can someone be born in the wrong body? Does our “personhood” exist apart from our physical body? Do some people have male bodies yet female brains or vice versa? Do others have female bodies but male souls? These are big questions that individuals, families, churches, and our culture are wrestling with. In this week’s episode, we welcome Author and Theologian Preston Sprinkle for an intriguing conversation on issues related to transgenderism and gender dysphoria.

Art is all around us. It is on every screen that we see, the TV shows and movies we watch, the plays and musicals we attend, and in the images that catch our eyes. The Bible is full of art too, in the forms of poetry, songs, and stories. But for many people of faith, talking about and interacting with the visual arts is a rarity. Most of us know we’re supposed to appreciate it but aren’t really sure how. Join us as Page2Podcast’s resident artist, Greg Holmes, discusses the complexities of appreciating art, what makes art good, and why it matters as we pursue God.
