The police killings of George Floyd and other Black Americans has reignited debate about policing in the United States. How can the Bible and theology speak to questions of immorality and racism in law enforcement? How can people of faith bear witness to an unjust system and advocate for change?

Join us as we examine systemic issues involved in policing: lack of training, inadequate accountability, and imbalanced financial priorities.
