I knew my black and brown brothers and sisters were feeling a weight and a pain I could never know, and I wanted to learn from them. Nashotah House’s online course, The Bible & Theology in Color, promised to help me appreciate their insights, their history, and hear what they had to say to the church. 

As we began the course, Dr. McCaulley asked that we engage with humility and invited us into a lifetime of study. His claim is this: the Bible contains the story of God bringing glory to himself by creating a diverse group of people and bringing them into a community centered around him and rooted in the good creation he has made.
