What does it mean to truly know who you are — when faith, culture, and history collide?

This 2024 Courageous Conversation panel, moderated by Perrin Rogers and featuring Dr. Maliek Blade, Kobe Campbell, Khristi Lauren Adams, and Dr. Vince Bantu, wrestles with personhood, identity, and self-worth in the Black Christian experience. They move everything from generational trauma and cultural erasure to faith, belonging, and the image of God—naming the truths too often left unsaid.

They also explore: - Is Christianity tied to whiteness? - How do we hold our cultural identity without losing our faith? - Can God meet us in gentleness, not just fear or performance? - What does healing look like for marginalized communities?

Can Christians engage politics without compromising their faith—or weaponizing it?

This panel dives headfirst into one of the most pressing questions of our time: how faith should (and shouldn’t) shape our political engagement. From Christian nationalism to Gen Z disillusionment to the legacy of the Black Church, this conversation challenges believers to think deeper, listen better, and engage more faithfully in the public square.

This isn’t about party loyalty — it’s about discipleship, discernment, and what it means to seek God’s kingdom here and now.

Moderator: Steven Harris Panelists: Michael McBride, Leah Daughtry, Treneé McGee, and Justin Giboney
