Use Your Privilege | John Ortberg

In this message, we explore race, racism, the ministry of reconciliation, and that God only invented one race—the HUMAN race. God made people, nations, languages, and cultures, and all are one in Christ Jesus. Menlo Church senior pastor John Ortberg also points out that the Bible never condemns the sin of racism because it had not yet been invented.
