Goals Of Talk
1.To increase our longing to see the Church brought to complete unity through the truth of the Gospel and the power of the Holy Spirit.
2.To shine the light of the gospel on the demonic forces behind racism, prejudice, bias, and any other form of division that comes against the Kingdom of God.
“Our greatest need today is men and women in every land, of every kindred and in every language committed to our oneness in Christ.”

Dr. Gardner C. Taylor
We Value All People
We believe we are one human race. We are one blood, all created from one man, Adam. And we are saved by one blood—the blood of Jesus, the Son of God who gave His life to reconcile us to the Father—and to one another. Through our kingdom identities, ethnicities, and cultures, we can see the creativity and unity of the Triune God.
People fail to get along because they fear each other; they fear each other because they don't know each other; they don't know each other because they have not communicated with each other.

– Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
