Week 3: Chains and Stains Some of the darkest moments in Church history weren’t just about what was said—but what was never said. This message confronts the painful truth of Christianity’s role in slavery. While the gospel declared freedom, many in the Church stayed silent—or worse, used Scripture to justify oppression. We’ll explore how the Bible was misused, how silence became complicity, and how injustice was allowed to thrive under the guise of religion. But even here, grace breaks through. The heart of God has always been for liberation, dignity, and truth. And He still calls His people to stand for what’s right—especially when it’s hard.
