Not only do we, as editors, want to include topics for dialogue, exercises, and activities that are still useful and serviceable, but more importantly we want to build upon the collective wisdom of past editors and contributors who pioneered this training methodology and then painstakingly molded it and perfected it for use. The chief editor of the 3rd edition and past chairperson of the Antiracism Committee of Executive Council, The Rev. Dr. Sheryl A. Kujawa-Holbrook said that even though this manual is a “mosaic,” one pedagogical value has not changed: Participants in this training methodology (or any other, for that matter) are still responsible for their own learning; the role of the skilled trainer is to lead groups through a multilayered participatory process, and the focus is always on the learner, her or his past experience and not the trainer.” Repeatedly, participants are invited to enter this journey of awareness and understanding from any path on which they find themselves and to engage with the materials, other participants, and the trainers to begin to build inclusive communities of justice and equity/equality. This manual is not the work of two or three editors alone. Rather, the material, the training tips, the activities, the training, and worship resources are drawn from thousands of participants, scores of trainers, and more than fifty antiracism committees and commissions across the country that are steadfastly committed to achieving racial justice for their dioceses and communities. Telephone calls, emails, and face-to-face consultations have shown us that this way works better than that, or that this video or DVD is just perfect to illustrate prejudice, white privilege or institutional racism. Without their input, this revision could not have been possible and would not achieve the goals we have to make this much more accessible to those who sincerely want to be able to train others. To this end we have placed all activities within the section in which they are intended to be used. We have also included information about the electronic resources that we use. Dr. Kujawa-Holbrook noted that the previous manual was a work in progress. This edition is no exception. I can guarantee that within days and weeks of its publication and distribution, we will discover additional resources which are relevant, either because of a new national development or a newly published book or article In closing, we are affirmed by the responses we have received when we have presented this antiracism training manual to dioceses for the first time. As lead trainers we acknowledge the learning that we have received, and we sincerely thank all participants, particularly those who came to the training with doubts and fears and considerable hesitation. To witness their ‘aha’ moments was indeed a joy to our spirits and a balm in Gilead to our souls. When mutual learning happens authentically, God is indeed present. Seeing the Face of God in Each Other: Antiracism Training Manual 1 Finally, there are no words to express my gratitude to and love for my co-editors, Barbara Culmer-Ilaw and Lou Schoen. Over the past eight years, my admiration for them and my absolute dependence on them has grown exponentially. Our faith and our assurance that God is always present when we work for justice has been our ‘tie that binds’ and our support in the down times. As has been stated by many authors in the past, any brilliance contained in this manual is due to them, and all of the errors to me. What an incredible journey we have had, my friends. Bless you. The Rev. Jayne Jones Oasin September 10, 2009 Feast Day of Alexander Crummell Priest, Missionary, Educator, 1898 2 Seeing the Face of God in Each Other: Antiracism Training Manual IntrOduction nnn Introduction “But Sir, We would see Jesus” Working for justice is difficult at best, excruciatingly difficult at worst. Most of the time it seems as if the more exact word for this long-hoped-for state of being is ‘just-us’ and even ‘just-me.’ It is one thing for churches, and yes, this is true of many denominations, to pass resolutions that repudiate this blight on our nation and repent this personal and institutional sin, to say that we are against racism and exclusion, and that we are working for justice. It is one thing for us to say that we decry the artificial and illegal barriers erected between those who have power and those who seek their rights, between those who enjoy the rich economic resources of this country and those who cry themselves to sleep from continuous hunger and deprivation. It is another thing altogether to be the seeker and the advocate and the trainer and the record keeper and, and… Only the super strong can labor in that vineyard alone. Only the robotic can be immune to the waves of fatigue, self-doubt and hopelessness that frequently assail us as we work to actualize that which everyone professes to want without the pain of getting there. I submit that we can only do this work with God as our companion and guide. And, to paraphrase Martin Smith from his lovely book and tape, Co-Creation with God: God does not intend for us to do any of the difficult work of establishing the Reign of God on earth by ourselves. We are always to say to God, “What shall we make of this?” One truth seems clear: It is a relationship, a partnership, a working together wherein, God and we compact together in a let’s-try-this-and-see-how-it-works way of being. Working against racism and for justice is not the work of a Lone Ranger, even with a faithful companion by one’s side. Companion is one of the ‘C’ words that those of us who prefer to work in groups treasure.

  • Glad Intellectual Dependence on God: a Theistic Account of Intellectual Humility"
    Center for Faith & Learning Scholar Program Reading for Dinner Dialogue #3 Winter 2020 "Glad Intellectual Dependence on God: A Theistic Account of Intellectual Humility" by Peter C. Hill, Kent Dunnington and M. Elizabeth Lewis Hall From: The Journal of Psychology and Christianity, 2018, Vol. 37, No.3, 195-204 Journal of Psychology and Christianity Copyright 2018 Christian Association for Psychological Studies 2018, Vol. 37, No.3, 195-204 ISSN 0733-4273 Glad Intellectual Dependence on God: A Theistic Account of Intellectual Humility Peter C. Hill Kent Dunnington M. Elizabeth Lewis Hall Biola University We present a view of intellectual humility as it may be experienced and expressed by a theist. From a religious cultural perspective and drawing primarily on Augustine, we argue that intellectual humility for the theist is based on glad intellectual dependence on God. It is evidenced in five markers of IH: (a) proper unconcern about one’s intellectual status and entitlements; (b) proper concern about one’s intellectual failures and limitations; (c) proper posture of intellectual submis- sion to divine teaching; (d) order epistemic attitudes that properly reflect one’s justification for one’s views, including those views held on the basis of religious testimony, church authority, interpreta- tions of scripture, and the like; and (e) proper view of the divine orientation of inquiry. Implica- tions of this perspective for the study of intellectual humility are provided. Positive psychology’s critique that the study especially relevant in an age where people of what is “right” about people has been frequently ignore, belittle, or even aggressive- understudied has opened the door to investi- ly attack alternative ideas, beliefs, or perspec- gate the psychological study of virtue.

  • Sermon Discussion
    SERMON DISCUSSION This LifeGroup will focus it’s discussion on the Spring Semester sermon series God Is... During this series we will have a deeper understanding on the Character of God. There is nothing more important than a right understanding of God. Every day we have fears, concerns, and demands that distract our lives and compete for our attention. Before long, we begin to filter God’s character and nature through our experiences, creating a god in our image. God Is... is about undoing this —stripping away the false picture that we have painted and restoring a proper view of who God is based on what he has revealed to us in Scripture. WEEK 1 - The Mystery of God WEEK 2 - The Holiness of God WEEK 3 - The Faithfulness of God WEEK 4 - The Wrath of God WEEK 5 – The Sovereignty of God WEEK 6 - The Mercy of God WEEK 7 - The Jealous God WEEK 8 - The Beauty of God WEEK 9 - The Love of God WEEK 1 - GOD IS...MYSTERY: THE MYSTERY OF GOD WEEK 1 - GOD IS...MYSTERY: THE MYSTERY OF GOD God is never boring. Frustrating, confusing, enlightening, shocking, and even funny, but He is never boring. If we think that God is boring, then we are obviously worshipping a God of our own making and not the Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer of the universe and of our own lives. God is incomprehensible, but the mystery of God is revealed in Christ. There are some things we will always wonder about and question because God’s thoughts are higher that our thoughts, and His ways are higher than our ways.

It will begin by identifying the relevant perspectives that a contemplative brings into an encounter with scripture. After this, there will be a short section exploring John’s use of the word love, and how this understanding of love is uniquely useful to the contemplative.
