JOIN US: UNITED 2: Beyond Diversity

On June 2, 2020, a diverse community of more than 40 church leaders from across the Metro stood side-by-side to host UNITED: A moment of repentance, solidarity, and prayer.

Together, with unwavering conviction, we said 'No More' to racial segregation, wrongdoing, and injustice. And, 'YES' to working on behalf of our brothers and sisters of color living in the Metro, our nation, and around the world.

Just one year later, we will host UNITED 2: Beyond Diversity, with special guest - pastor, author, and former NFL player - Miles McPherson.

In his book, The Third Option, Miles - who leads one of the most diverse churches in America - discusses the heart of God for all people and provides powerful tools to help us pursue honorable conversations around race in order to bring about change in our communities. Miles writes:

"Racism is what happens when we ignore the beauty in ourselves and in others, throw away God's instructions on how to live, and make up our own rules that result in dishonoring ourselves and others. The good news is, He is more than happy to tell us how to use the inalienable rights he's endowed us with, if we'll simply ask for His help. The unalienable image of God in you is alive. The fact doesn't change as your get older. It doesn't change when you commit a crime. It doesn't change if you're Black or White, poor or rich. Your image was given to you by your Creator, which gives you inherent value and makes everyone you meet worthy of experiencing his honor through you."

During our time together, Miles will help us experience impact and breakthrough by alleviating racial tension in our churches, communities, and country. Together, we'll assess our progress over the last year, identify growth areas, and recommit to the journey of pursuing the dignity and equality of all people.

Don't miss this opportunity to STAND UNITED with church and city influencers on behalf of every person who calls the Metro home!
