Healing Our Broken Humanity – A Seven-Session Film Series on Race, Justice, and Reconciliation

This series of films with John M. Perkins, Soong-Chan Rah, Ray Minniecon, Randy Woodley, Emmanuel Katongole, Amal Nassar, and Carol Kingston-Smith is on race, justice, and reconciliation.

We are living in conflicted times. We see so much injustice, inequality, division, racism, and fear. We want to see change and see justice restored. We want to make a difference. But how do we do this? Jesus calls us to be a peacemaking and reconciling people. We need fresh Christian practices that help us bring healing and hope to a broken and unjust world.

In this seven-session film series, these outstanding thinkers guide us through a vision of peace and reconciliation, and practices that transforms the world. Each of the seven films comes with small group study guides, to help your church and small group wrestles with issues and apply the insights. You can also listen to them as podcasts.

I’m an Adjunct Research Fellow and Associate Professor at Charles Sturt University, and I hold a PhD in theology from Flinders University.

My book Healing Our Broken Humanity (co-authored with Grace Ji-Sun Kim) was named Outreach Magazine’s 2019 Book of the Year in the culture category, and World Christianity was shortlisted for the 2025 Australian Christian Book of the Year. In 2024, I was honoured to receive the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for my service to theological education. I live in Sydney with my wife, Shyn.

My qualifications include: OAM, Honours Diploma of Ministry (SCD), Bachelor of Theology (SCD), Master of Theology (Notre Dame), and Doctor of Philosophy (Flinders).

I explore the links between Christian spirituality and public life, shaped by a high view of Scripture, core historic Christian beliefs, and discipleship in the Way of Jesus. I affirm the Nicene, Apostles’, and Chalcedonian creeds as faithful expressions of orthodoxy. My work is grounded in the authority of Scripture, the centrality of Christ, the life of the Triune God, and the gospel’s hope for personal transformation and the common good.
