DESCRIPTION

The Friendship Challenge can help you get the conversation started about bridging the racial divide in your community.

The Friendship Challenge is a six-week guide, helping individuals and groups promote racial reconciliation in their communities—one person at a time, one friendship at a time. The first week prepares individuals and groups to reach out to a person on the other side of the racial divide, whether it is a person at work or in a nearby church. The next five weeks take that small group through a study that fosters true reconciliation—the kind of reconciliation Jesus showed in his own life and death.

Take the Friendship Challenge and spend the next six weeks cultivating true reconciliation in your community.
