American citizens should not be surprised at the paucity of character we are currently seeing in our politicians.

Dr. Carl Ellis, Jr. explains how neither racism nor personal responsibility by themselves can explain the current racial tension in American. We must address the "culture of dysfunctionality".

Jemar Tisby directs us to a seven-part series entitled, "Race and the American Church", by Otis Pickett that surveys the U.S. church's interplay with racial dynamics.

In this final segment of a 3-part series on the Image of God in the African American experience, we see how Christ gives us an identity realer than race.

In part of the Image of God and the African American experience we explore how slavery, Jim Crow Laws, and subtler forms of racism today diminished but did not destroy the image of God.
