In this episode, recorded during Black History Month, we interview Temple University professor and Reverend David Brown and his wife, Director of People and Culture at the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House Sharon Brown. David and Sharon are  long-time friends and frequent guest speakers/facilitators at First Church. We focus on the topic of race and the Black/African-American experience, particularly within the Christian church. Our guests share their experience and their wisdom on this important issue in an enlightening, beautiful conversation.
