After a week of turmoil in our country once again, Pastor Shannon preaches a sermon on racism and the church’s call. As the people of God, we cannot sit quietly and let our world destroy itself. We must actively seek justice, speak for those who cannot speak for themselves, and stand up against injustice. Pastor Shannon also discusses #blacklivesmatter.
