Popular Christian Singer Jamie Grace slams racism in church, shares what a pastor said about her skin color

Popular Christian singer and YouTube star Jamie Grace has been very vocal about her various encounters with racism while Americans across the nation protest racial injustice. Most recently, she shared her experiences of racism in the church.
“If I had known Jamie Grace was black, I definitely would not have brought her here…” she wrote on social media, revealing that a “white pastor” said this to someone from her team while they were setting up Grace’s photo banner in the lobby of the church.
Grace is one of the few black singers who has had success in Christian contemporary music, whose audiences are predominantly white. She said after a few weeks of posting about racism, it has come to her attention that many of her supporters and friends did not realize racism still existed.
“The quote above represents one of many personal experiences. Sadly, racism is very much thriving in many Christian communities. My question to YOU is, what will you do about it? How will you search your heart to make sure it is clear of discrimination and bias?” she asked.
“And if you have checked, and it’s clear, how will hold your community accountable? How will you actively raise anti-racist children? How will you uplift the voices of black men and women beyond a retweet or post on social media?” she continued.
Grace encouraged her followers not to respond on social media but rather to actually put their words into action.
“Unsure of where to start? If you have the day off of work today, watch ‘When They See Us’ on Netflix. If you have a few hours or even minutes, check the ‘Live About It’ or ‘Anti-Racism’ highlights on my Instagram,” she instructed.
“If you had the time to read all of this, but are unable to take at least 3 minutes to see or save the resources listed, please consider unfollowing me. I do not share this story to cause shock and awe followed by lack of action. Thank you so much for understanding.”
Earlier in the month, Grace kindly confronted Grammy Award-winning Christian singer Lauren Daigle about her reaction to the murder of George Floyd.
Grace responded to Daigle and asked her to consider taking her comments and support for black people even further. Daigle broke her silence about the death of Floyd with a 53-minute response after being questioned about it by some of her friends.
“Thank you for posting this, Lauren. I know we haven’t talked in a while but I hope you know that I support you and know that your voice is beautifully influential. I know that you said this is difficult to process and you didn’t watch the video in its entirety as you don’t want this to feel normal, but might I ask, whether you watch it or not – please don’t withhold from feeling it ALL. Allow yourself to feel it all. As black people, this IS normal to us. And we don’t have the privilege of to not acknowledge the normalcy,” Grace told Daigle in the comment section of her video.
“This is not a killing movie or violent video game, this is potentially my reality every time my husband goes to Chick-fil-A or the gas station. This is the conversation that our sons and brothers have as young as 8, learning to seem less ‘scary’ so they can come home from school,” she said. “This is ‘n***er’ shouted from the very churches I am booked to lead worship. And whatever our white peers need to do to feel what we feel – we need you to press into it and feel it. We want change. And I genuinely believe in my heart that you do too. But that change begins with empathy, so that the change is not FOR us, but WITH us.”

‘Give Everything Over to God’: Actress Patricia Heaton’s Powerful Message About Honoring the Lord

Actress Patricia Heaton is on a mission to honor God. From her faith-inspiring efforts to defend Israel through her October 7 Coalition to creating uplifting Hollywood content, she remains busy.
She told during the red carpet premiere of her new film “The Unbreakable Boy” in New York City this week that she believes God has been the key to her long career starring on shows like “Everybody Loves Raymond” and “The Middle,” among other projects.
“When you give everything over to God, He gives it back to you in a way you could never have imagined,” Heaton said. “I feel like God gave me certain gifts and so it’s my responsibility to honor Him in the work.”
As for her latest project, “The Unbreakable Boy” — a film about a family navigating the journey of a child who is both autistic and suffers from brittle bone disease — Heaton said she was elated to play a role in telling the transformative overcomer story.
“The story is wonderful and it’s a true story,” she said. “And it’s a story about a struggle that many families experience today — a child on the spectrum or even just if your kid has learning differences.”
Heaton continued, “You see a story where the struggles are not sugarcoated, but it’s hopeful and redemptive at the end.”
Amid a crazy and confused culture, the actress said “The Unbreakable Boy” tells a raw and real story that is much-needed. The encouraging nature of the film, Heaton believes, is the perfect respite for people who are trying to find peace amid the storms of life.

With the days of Lent just around the corner, a new movie following the final days in the story of Jesus Christ’s life is on its way to cinemas. And, today,exclusive first look at the poster and trailer for filmmaker Mauro Borrelli’s The Last Supper. Starring Jamie Ward (His Dark Materials) as Jesus, James Faulkner (Game of Thrones) as Caiaphas, and Nathalie Rapti Gomex (Love on the Rock), the media gives audiences a look into one of the most important stories from the Bible that will rise into a theater near you on March 14.
Introducing The Last Supper’s trailer is none other than renowned Christian singer and songwriter, Chris Tomlin, who joins the film’s team as an executive producer. The musician sets up the tale that audiences are about to see before the teaser rolls, which opens on a shot of the production’s titular meal, where we see Jesus (Ward) breaking bread alongside his disciples at the table of the Last Supper. As the religious leader addresses his followers, instructing them how to honor the practice of communion, scenes from their time together play overtop. Famous stories from the Bible begin to flash in and out, with Peter (James Oliver Wheatley) crossing paths with Jesus for the first time, the latter throwing over the tables at the temple, and the holy leader addressing the masses on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. Promising to carry audiences through Holy Week, we also see Jesus’ betrayal at the hands of one of his own, his arrest, and his crucifixion.
Anyone who knows the story of Jesus’ final days knows that there are a lot of main players, meaning that the call sheet for The Last Supper is a lengthy one. Additionally, the Pinnacle Peak Pictures-backed film will feature the likes of Henry Garrett (Silo) as Nicodemus, Daniel Fathers (House of the Dragon) as Joseph of Arimathea, Marie-Batoul Prenant (Testament: The Story of Moses) as Rachel, Billy Rayner (The Catcher Was a Spy) as Thomas, Robert Knepper (Prison Break) as Judas, Charlie MacGechan (Pennyworth) as John, Ben Dilloway (Masters of the Air) as Malchus, Fredrik Wagner (The Playlist) as Andrew, Harry Anton (The Last Kingdom) as Simon The Zealot, and more.

‘Blasphemy’: Female ‘Wicked’ Star Cynthia Erivo to Play Jesus in ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’

“Wicked” star Cynthia Erivo — a female who identifies as bisexual and queer — is slated to portray Jesus in “Jesus Christ Superstar” at the Hollywood Bowl, an amphitheater in Los Angeles.
The 38-year-old celebrity posted about the controversial role on her Instagram story, writing, “Just a little busy this summer. Can’t wait!”
She also collaborated with the Hollywood Bowl in a post to her feed:
Erivo is not a stranger to “Jesus Christ Superstar,” as she portrayed Mary Magdalene in the incredibly controversial musical in 2020, when it was performed by an all-female cast.
The condemnations for the casting decision have been swift, according to Daily Mail.
One critic called the news “blasphemy” and “mocking Christ the King,” while another wrote, “Hollywood really is just a fishbowl of likeminded individuals; good luck with this one.”
“Cynthia should be more careful about the roles she gets,” added someone else. “This is just plain disrespectful.”
It should be noted the Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd-Webber musical, which first debuted in 1971, is a very controversial and, to some, deeply offensive show known for depicting Jesus as a flawed man with doubts and anxieties. The musical also establishes the relationship between the Son of God and Mary Magdalene as potentially romantic and sees Judas in a more sympathetic light than Scripture portrays.
The short run for Erivo’s performance at the Hollywood Bowl is slated for Aug. 1-3.
