Join Bishop Shannon Duckworth and the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana to explore questions of spirituality today.
Join Bishop Shannon Duckworth (Diocese of Louisiana) as she discusses the fourth question of our baptismal covenant with the Rev. Ollie V. Rencher:
Will you seek and serve Christ in all persons, loving your neighbor as yourself?
Bishop Shannon Duckworth (Diocese of Louisiana) and Rev. Ollie V. Rencher (Rector of Grace-St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Memphis) examine what it means to live with courage, kindness, and strength.
These longtime friends contemplate prayer, intentionality, and how they work to stay grounded in the face of the sin of racism and the lifelong journey of racial healing.
“All people are equal, regardless of how they act.”
