Formation in the Wake of Distress
Vincent Bacote
This episode features a presentation from our 2018 conference on spiritual formation, given by Dr. Vincent Bacote of Wheaton College. What can the broader church learn from the experiences and theological emphases of the African American Church? How has the Black experience in America shaped the approach to spiritual formation in these contexts? How can White Christians listen and learn from the wisdom of these communities' shared experience?
Vincent Bacote is an Associate Professor of Theology at Wheaton College and the Director of the Center for Applied Christian Ethics. He is the author of several books, including The Political Disciple: A Theology of Public Life (Zondervan, 2015).
