077 – Understanding Race, Ethnicity, and Culture From a Biblical Perspective with Krista Bontrager
In Episode 77 of the Bold Faith Now podcast, Krista Bontrager joins Missy for a conversation about the often-avoided topics of race and racism within the Christian community. They discuss the importance of understanding the differences between race, ethnicity, and culture, and how these concepts are often misinterpreted. Krista shares insights from her book, “Walking in Unity: Biblical Answers to Questions on Race and Racism,” co-authored with Monique Dusong, and emphasizes the need for Christians to engage in meaningful dialogue about race. The discussion also touches on systemic racism, the church’s role in promoting racial diversity, and practical advice for having difficult conversations about race.
Remember to live boldly for Jesus, and let your light shine bright for Him!

Welcome Friends!
My name is Missy, and I love Jesus!
I am a Christ-follower, wife, mom, author, speaker, Colson Fellow, and host of the Bold Faith Now podcast. My heart is to encourage believers to live boldly for Jesus in a world that often tells us to stay quiet, blend in, or keep our faith tucked safely in the shadows.
Through writing, speaking, and podcasting, I help believers grow in bold faith, stand firm in truth, and view the world through a biblical worldview. Because following Jesus was never meant to be passive. It is a call to shine His light, speak truth with grace, and take the next obedient step.
My prayer is simple: to point others to Jesus, encourage bold faith, and remind believers that now is the time to live courageously for Him. Join the Bold Faith community and listen to the podcast for encouragement to live out your faith with conviction, clarity, and courage.
