Dr. Vince Bacote is our guest in this podcast. He has a lively conversation with Brendan Romigh and Dr. Bob Robinson on the multifaceted issue of racism, and how a biblical understanding of the gospel and of shalom (flourishing) can help white evangelicals think clearly about this issue.

Vince Bacote is currently editing a 20-week series on Christianity Today’s website titled “Race Set Before Us” featuring 20 Christians of color addressing racial justice and what the church needs to know.

How can we overcome the disconnect between our Sunday faith and the rest of our week?

Every week, join Brendan Romigh and Dr. Bob Robinson as they discuss the joys and frustrations of reintegrating every aspect of life with their faith and interview thought leaders and practitioners who are doing it. Bob is in his 50s and Brendan is in his 20s, so they offer an engaging dialogue from different generational vantage points.

If you desire insights into how to live an integrated Christian life, one in which you can better experience Jesus Christ and participate in what God’s doing in the world, this is the podcast for you.
