As the “social gospel” continues to gain traction within contemporary American evangelicalism, increasing numbers of professing Christians are aligning themselves with the idea that black Americans are owed reparations for slavery. But is such an idea biblical? In this expanded episode of the Just Thinking broadcast, Darrell and Virgil go in-depth to discuss the divisive issue of reparations from both a personal and theological perspective. Listen carefully as what you hear may surprise you.

I’m so thankful for you guys. Your recent podcast on reparations was probably your best one so far. I’m a Southern Baptist who is frustrated by the direction the denomination is headed in regard to homosexuality, social justice, and liberalism. It’s great to have the Just Thinking podcast as a resource to refute what is being said by some Southern Baptist leaders. God bless you guys.
Such clarity on a difficult issue. I appreciate your work and you both sound so nice while saying hard things! You are a gift to the church!
Thank you Darrell and Virgil for the best treatment of this issue I have heard to date. We must go to the word of God for any true change of mind. We renew our minds by the washing of the word. Jesus came to bring Unity, which is a blessing from God. In Christ, Todd Keep up the good work!
