In this episode of "Around the Block," host Pastor T speaks with Eric and Nana Dolce, who serve at New Macedonia Baptist Church in southeast Washington, D.C. They discuss the importance of engaging with the city and its diverse stories while emphasizing the transformative power of the gospel in predominantly black and brown neighborhoods marked by vulnerability and neglect.
They emphasize the importance of focusing on the significance of ministering to individuals rather than relying on generalizations or abstractions. While there are general truths, it is crucial not to disengage from showing love and ministering to individuals. It is acknowledged that ministering to generations requires ministering to individuals. Join Pastor T as he explores the gospel ecology of these predominantly black and brown neighborhoods, seeking to understand how the gospel is shaping lives and communities on the block.
