Faith Uncut

Faith Stories: JW (REVISITED)

Last week, the world lost a beautiful soul, JW Studgeon. Faith Uncut would not exist without him. As we’re preparing to celebrate his life, this week, we’re remembering the last conversation we had with JW. It was filled with beautiful moments. Stay for the end where we captured some candid conversation.

Check In

This week we take a break to check in on each other and see how we’re navigating rebuilding. How is it going? What has changed? The self-assessment is important. It’s an off-mic Faith Uncut conversation we had with the mics on. 

Persecution Complex

This week we’re discussing persecution. What has it meant for Christians and why is it invoked so frequently? Being in power matters. Can you be persecuted while being in the power position? 

 

We also discuss the National Association of Black Seminarians and Alumni, a new organization intended to develop a national network to connect and provide support for both Black seminarians and alumni. The directory link mentioned in the show is: http://bit.ly/blacksemdirectory
