”Black In White Church” is a podcast about exactly that: the black experience in white church. The hosts will walk us through topics, experiences, and relationships within the white church. Many of their conversations will center around R’s personal experiences of being a black pastor in a white church. The hope is to help our white churches understand the impact they have on black Christian members. From there, white churches can hopefully become spaces of welcome, belonging, and ultimately, family for black Christians.

On today's episode, Ryan and C.V. talk through common sayings Ryan heard growing up in white Church. Phrases like “you don’t really act like a black guy” to “do you get sunburnt?” to even seemingly innocent ones like assuming Ryan loves fried chicken and watermelon. Some of these could be classified as “Microaggressions,” and others as forms of “othering.”
Regardless, we hope this episode shows you the importance of language in our churches. What we say matters, and that especially matters in terms of race in our churches.
