I've always been interested in gaining understanding of other people's experiences and points of view. Today I've brought in Sterling Contreras to school us on apologetics in the context of the Hispanic community. I had a hunch that there would be parallels between how people of African descent and Hispanic descent have developed negative sentiments toward Christianity on the basis of colonialism.
