You’ve probably heard it alleged that Christianity is a White-man’s Religion. Or, you’ve personally made that allegation, or espoused the idea.
But is that true? What would be the implication of it being true? Was Jesus himself white?
How would you substantiate, or respond to it?
Here are some insights given by our National team leader, Raymond Bukenya in the recording with the Oxford Center for Christian Apologetics. (OCCA)
In this discussion, our National Team Leader, Raymond Bukenya and Charlie Styles (Team Leader at OCCA) examine whether suffering provides a reason to reject God. Raymond shares diverse perspectives on how people reconcile pain with spiritual beliefs, drawing from his experiences in Uganda’s Karimojong community and his personal story of suffering.
A major highlight is the four categories of suffering and the suggestion that suffering is like a Coin with two sides – being Pain (heads) and Privilege (tails).

We believe in Love as the greatest apologetic. Love for God and love for neighbour. Love for the believer, the seeker, and the skeptic. We have been loved and unconditionally, and so we love. For faith, hope and love abide, but Love is the greatest of them all.
Our world is wounded, broken, and significantly without hope. We are passionate about telling the story (and stories) of Hope amidst this despair. We believe that hope can be restored in view of the eternal hope offered by the Cross and resurrection of Christ. Salvation, Justice, and Hope are in Christ.
We strongly believe that faith is a rational response to the evidence and the truth claims of Christianity. And that faith in that truth is central helpful in navigating the difficult questions of life in our world. Anchoring hope and love.
Tangazo is about Light. We believe in the reasonableness of the light revealed in Christ. And through the Scriptures, we are passionate to bring Clarity on the Christian Faith and exposing the misconceptions and misperceptions, and abuses associated with it. We do this objectively, honestly, and transparently.
We strongly believe in the centrality of truth to life, and are therefore passionate and committed to proclaiming the Truth of the Gospel which is the power of God unto Salvation. Without Truth we are not Tru Tangazo. We pursue this through research, storytelling, and conversation.
MISSION STATEMENT:
“Being a voice of Truth and Clarity, and bringing Biblically relevant Light on contextually contentious issues shaping thought and faith in our city, nation, region and beyond”
