Meet Jerry Hawkins, our new Director of Equity Initiatives | Tiny Pulpit Talks: 058

In this episode of Tiny Pulpit Talks, Director of Equity Initiatives Jerry Hawkins joins Rev. T. J. FitzGerald for a conversation about racial equity, faith, and the work already happening within the church and the wider Dallas community. Jerry shares his story, from growing up in Chicago to years of equity work across organizations, and reflects on what it means to step into this new role at the church. Together, they talk about the church’s long-standing commitment to racial equity and why this moment is about turning intention into action.
