    About this Episode

    Entrepreneur, lead real estate agent and housing activist, Jonathan Rich, joins us to dive into the history of racism in real estate, how we can bring equity in today’s practices and how his own journey has informed his heart for building communities full of homes, not houses. How has zoning, wards and redlining had generational effects on community development? Why and how were the suburbs created? How does where you live affect your access to food, education, transport and other necessities? Were there racist real estate laws and when did they get reformed? What can we do today to help change the lasting effects of these historical evils? Jonathan answers these questions and more in an episode that equips and educates us to thoughtfully engage around this reality.

    Making Space for Belonging with Cesar Castillejos
    How can we create spaces in our communities and ministries where people of different backgrounds feel like they belong? What’s the difference between belonging and feeling “comfortable,” and how does discomfort help us grow? Cesar Castillejos has years of experience fostering meaningful belonging for kids and young adults in youth ministry. He shares countless gems of wisdom in this episode, like- When should we come in as a learner and a servant instead of a doer? How are we using our opportunity and access to equip and empower others? Are we prepared to get out of the way so that others can grow? How can we create “holy confusion” that leads to awe and wonder about Jesus? Cesar addresses all of this and more.
