Description: What does it mean to be Black and evangelical in America? In this powerful conversation, I'm joined by Dr. Vincent Bacote, professor of theology and director of the Center for Applied Christian Ethics at Wheaton College. We explore the intersections of race, faith, and education, and the complex legacy of evangelicalism in the U.S. Dr. Bacote shares his own story, discusses anti-intellectualism in ministry, and unpacks his groundbreaking documentary Black and Evangelical. We also highlight unsung heroes of the Black evangelical movement and challenge listeners to expand their understanding of church history and mission.
