Williamsburg Baptist Church

By Art Wright

At Williamsburg Baptist Church we are discovering what it means to be "a different kind of Baptist." We are committed to historic, Baptist principles like freedom of conscience, but we also seek to be an open-minded and inclusive community that values learning, spirituality, and social justice. We invite you to join us on the journey, and hope you will enjoy these podcast recordings of sermons from worship, as well as other recorded programs from the life of our church.

"A Smart Mouth" - August 20, 2023 Sermon (Wisdom pt. 2)

Thanks so much for listening to our podcast! During the summer, we take a pause from the Narrative Lectionary, and we are delighted to offer three unique sermon series opportunities over the coming weeks. Today's sermon is part 2 of a 4-week series on the theme of "Wisdom." This sermon is based on Proverbs 8. We hope it will be a word of encouragement and blessing to you this week. We were delighted to welcome the Rev. Dr. Starlette Thomas to our pulpit to share it.

Author, activist, visual artist, race abolitionist and archivist, Reverend Dr. Starlette Thomas is a womanist in ministry and the principal architect of a raceless world. A pastor, denominational leader and clergy coach, she is a natural shepherd of words and people, leading them to their most authentic and best expression. Starlette regularly writes on the sociopolitical construct of race and its longstanding membership in the North American church as an associate editor and the director of The Raceless Gospel Initiative at Good Faith Media. Her podcast, The Raceless Gospel, takes her listeners to church and to a virtual church service where she and her guests tackle that taboo trinity— race, religion and politics. An unrepentant academician and bibliophile, Starlette graduated in May with a Doctor of Ministry degree from Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C. Her thesis is titled "Take me to the water: A raceless gospel as baptismal pedagogy for a desegregated church."

Hey, friends, thanks so much for listening to our podcast. We had a big church family picnic this past week instead of gathering for formal worship, so there is no sermon to share. But wanted to share this significant update with you on our podcast. Will resume our sermon podcasts next week as usual! Thanks so much for listening.
