Key Takeaways:

  • Minneapolis is one of most (if not the most) diverse city in the US. For example, in one neighborhood covering 8 blocks, approximately 100 languages are spoken.
  • How the church in Minneapolis responded to the death of George Floyd and what church leaders are doing now to build bridges and address racial unity and justice.
  • The importance of listening when people are hurting.
  • The importance of winsomely and strategically addressing rival worldviews or “gospels,” and how church leaders in Minneapolis are working through this now.
  • A key article Jeff mentions – “Riots in John Piper’s Neighborhood”
  • Practical steps for church leaders in other cities.
  • A great question, “What is God’s redemption story in all of this?”
