SUMMARY:The Christian Possession of Tools of Violence
DESCRIPTION:Session 1: by Walter Taylor and Matthew Worthington\, Racial Wh
 oleness\nAfter Jesus’ arrest in Matthew 26:52\, he tells Peter\, “Put 
 your sword back in its place.” He does not tell him to discard it. In wh
 at ways does this passage speak today to Christians who possess weapons? H
 ow did Hutu and Tutsi Christians view this passage in the Rwandan genocide
  of 1994? How does a Christian reconcile the blessing on peacemakers in th
 e Sermon on the Mount with Peter’s willingness to use violence during a 
 moment of civil conflict?\n\nBSB 114

SUMMARY:Niebuhr/Bonhoeffer and the Personal Use of Violence
DESCRIPTION:Session 2: by Darrell Wesley and Chris Dowdy\, Racial Wholeness
 \nDuring the Jewish Holocaust\, Dietrich Bonhoeffer\, a German theologian 
 and author of the Christian classic The Cost of Discipleship\, struggled t
 o apply Jesus’ teachings on nonviolence in response to Adolf Hitler. In 
 the 1932 classic Moral Man and Immoral Society\, American theologian Reinh
 old Niebuhr addressed the difficulty of applying biblical principles to th
 is topic as well. How can these texts guide our thinking and Christian con
 victions on whether the personal use of violence is justified?\n\nBSB 114

DESCRIPTION:By Brandon Jones and Alvin Curette\, Racial Wholeness\n\nDavid 
 Walker\, a former slave\, wrote a book in 1829 in which he made a fervent 
 appeal for slaves to use violence in gaining freedom from their masters. D
 oes this strategy have a place in today's world in which corruption and ot
 her evil practices still prevail? Which scriptures or theological argument
 s could dissuade Christians today\, regardless of race\, from using civil 
 violence to respond to oppression and injustice?\n\nBSB 114

 own that nearly 75% of U.S. Americans possess a pro-White racial bias\, re
 gardless of their own racial identity. And for many\, this condition has t
 aken hold by the age of three. What many do not realize\, is the powerful 
 role that movies\, children’s books\, and other forms of visual media pl
 ay in developing and sustaining this worldview. Instead of offering a solu
 tion\, religious imagery has (for many) functioned as the cornerstone of t
 his racial worldview.\n\nAuthor and artist Brian Dewayne presents some tho
 ughts on how our longstanding practice of ‘viewing the biblical narrativ
 e’ may have something to contribute to the conversation about American R
 ace\, American Religion\, and what we’re teaching our children.\nRegiste
