Conversations on Race and Unity | Understanding Community (Orlando) | August 20, 2020

Join Lead Pastor John Parker with Eddy Moratin, Dr. Joel Hunter, and Phil Hissom as they discuss the history of our Orlando and Central Florida area community. They’ll talk about the historical context that has contributed to economic or racial injustice in our city. We don’t come into the present day with a clean slate in our city, and there is a complexity to the challenges of working toward solutions. But not without hope. Conversations on Race and Unity Hosted by John Parker is a six-week event from Summit Church. As we seek to live as citizens of God's kingdom, it’s important we learn and understand perspectives from many walks of life, cultures, and circumstances. We’ll hear from community leaders and those who can speak to perspectives that may be different than your own.
