Jude 3 Project Special Feature: Power...How Can I Take Control & Find Freedom From Pain? - Courageous Conversations 2024
Power can heal—or destroy. Which one are we choosing?
In this 2024 Courageous Conversations panel, this unfiltered panel takes on one of the most misunderstood forces in our faith, churches, and communities: power.
Moderated by David Bailey and featuring Mike Kelsey, Bishop Charley Hames Jr, Rahiel Tesfamariam, and Latasha Morrison, this panel explores power through the lenses of faith, leadership, pain, and responsibility. From the misuse of power in systems and churches to the quiet strength found in surrender, empathy, and love, this conversation challenges the narratives we’ve inherited—and the ones we perpetuate.
You’ll hear reflections on:
-
Power surrendered to God vs. power used for control
-
How pain, suffering, and healing intersect
-
The danger of adopting empire-driven views of success
-
Leadership, stewardship, and succession in the Black church
-
Why love must always be at the center of power
