Is the Gospel social? Lessons from the life of Fannie Lou Hamer.

Описание: This is the first video in a 4-part series for Black History Month titled: Black Christian Women You Should Know.

We start with Fannie Lou Hamer; maybe the most important civil rights leader you've never heard of. She started picking cotton at six years old; dropped out of school at 12; was forcibly sterilized without consent; then beaten within inches of her life in a Mississippi jail. And STILL Fannie Lou Hamer became one of the most powerful voices of the civil rights movement—standing toe-to-toe with politicians and co-founding the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party, among other critical organizations.

In this episode of The Preaching Collective we explore how Fannie Lou Hamer's deep faith fueled her relentless activism and what the gospel looks like when it shows up in real life.

ABOUT ROOSEVELT COMMUNITY CHURCH:
We exist to engage all people with all of Jesus. Located at the intersection of Roosevelt and 1st Street in the Roosevelt Arts District in Downtown Phoenix. RCC is a multiethnic congregation gathering every Sunday, with a unique voice crossing theology, street, and family. We make content to help extend the message of the gospel everywhere people are, far beyond Sunday morning. We share theological social commentary on a number of issues and current events, so that as much as it depends on us, we do not fail to speak on matters that have gone unspoken from churches historically. We believe the gospel of Jesus and his kingdom, and all its righteousness is thorough and complete as the authority to help us navigate our world, so we want to be faithful in providing everyone who listens a clear path to follow the way of Jesus.
