Biblical Anti-RacismMy 30-Day Challenge Journal

ARE YOU READY?before you begin, prepare your heart.

God wants you here. The world needs you here. If you’ve committed to this 30-Day Challenge, it is because something inside you knows that it’s time.

It’s time to pursue God’s heart for biblical justice. It’s time to listen to diverse voices and gain a deeper understanding of the world around you.

We can’t guarantee it’ll be easy. In fact, we know it won’t. But we can guarantee that we’ll be with you every step of the way - together, as one body.

Take a minute to ask God to help you commit to this journey, even when it gets hard.

Write down some reflections on why this commitment is important to you.

What do you expect to gain from committing to this challenge?

TAKE A MINUTE TO REFLECT...God wants you here. the world needs you here.

Before you began this challenge you asked God to help you commit to it, even when it got hard. Where did you see God during the past 30 days? How did you feel him work in you?

Take moment to go back to the beginning of your journal. You wrote down what you expected to gain from this challenge. Did you get what you hoped for? Did you get more than you hoped for?

Learning is the first step towards becoming actively anti-racist. What will change in your life as a result of what you’ve learned?

What will change in your family?

What will change in your community?

What will change in your church?
