Why Can't We Get Past This?
Racism in American Culture and The Church
​May 19-June 2


From the first days of the American experiment racism has been woven into the fabric of our nation. Over the years, so much has changed. Yet, racism remains a burden in our culture. We tend to think of racism in very personal terms, like language or insults or belittling attitudes that result from bias. It is that. But racism is dangerous when such bias is empowered by the structures of society. Some have called racism “America’s original sin.” Rev. Tom Are and Rev. Dr. Rodger Nishioka will share a sermon series to lift up what they see about this important social and spiritual struggle.

May 19      Rev. Dr. Rodger Nishioka Preaching: I Just See People
May 26      Rev. Tom Are Preaching: It’s Not About You. It’s About Us.
June 2       Revs. Tom Are and Rodger Nishioka: It’s Not Just About Us. It’s About Me. 

Rev. Tom Are and Rev. Rodger Nishoka have a recommended reading list for those who wish to further study race and racism. CLICK HERE to download the reading list.
