Yasmin Pierce explores the "blueprint" for how real change happens within a community. Using the story of the Circuit Riders and the birth of Black Voices, she explains how creating space for radical honesty led to a God-encounter that transformed their entire staff. This conversation moves beyond political talking points and explores how to empower a generation to be proud of their identity "in a Jesus way" rather than through the lens of modern secular theories.
In This Episode:
▫️Moving Beyond Politics: Why young people are hungry for more than political talking points, seeking instead a kingdom-based identity rooted in the Sermon on the Mount.
▫️The Power of Shared Pain: How leaning into the discomfort of racial shakings in 2020 led to a culture of repentance and authentic healing within their community.
▫️Identity vs. Platform: The importance of making a movement a "platform for Jesus" rather than just a showcase for a specific demographic.
▫️The "13-Year Overnight Success": Why staying in the "mix" and being faithful in small assignments for over a decade is the only way to be ready when God moves.
