Bring Biblical Perspectives on Cultural Issues to Your Event

We're here to serve God's people.

The issues surrounding the race, gender, and justice are becoming increasingly complex. Our speaker team is available to address topics with biblical fidelity, honesty, humor, and grace in a shame-free environment. They are available to speak in-person or virtually at your weekend services, church conference, campus ministry group, school chapel service, and retreats.

Our Speaking Team

Monique Duson

Co-founder & President

Chantal Monique Duson Is the co-founder and President at the Center for Biblical Unity. She has a background in social service and children’s ministry. She has worked with a diverse array of under-served communities. She worked as a Missionary to South Africa for over four years, serving children and teachers impacted by drugs, violence, and trauma. She spent two decades advocating for Critical Race Theory (CRT), but through a series of events, began to clearly see the contradictions of CRT with the historic Christian worldview. Monique is now convinced that CRT is not the best way to achieve racial unity and actively speaks out against the use of CRT within the church. Monique has a BA in Sociology from Biola University. She is working on a MA in Public Theology at Birmingham Theological Seminary.

Professional
Development

REQUEST A TRAINING

We offer workshops and full-day trainings on a variety of issues related to race, queer theory, and justice for churches, Christian schools (K-12), ministries and Christian colleges. In everything we do, we foster an atmosphere of biblical truth and grace as participants investigate what is hindering open and honest conversations about race, and learn how to lead others in biblically-focused and unifying conversations. Experiential exercises help offer a real-time look into our experiences, thoughts, and fears in a shame-free environment.

Policy Review &
Consulting

REQUEST CONSULTING HELP

Perhaps you need help writing a position statement on race and justice for your organization. Maybe you school needs to review its dress code policy to make sure it is fair for all. Or, maybe you need help revising your process to better screen applicants for biblical fidelity when hiring new staff. Whatever your needs, we'll come alongside your team to develop policies that will support your goals for racial unity.

Ministry Review & Development

REQUEST HELP TO START A JUSTICE MINISTRY

Not every community needs another food pantry or clothes donation program. Let us help you assess the effectiveness of your current community outreach program or develop a new ministry based on the needs of your community and biblical principles. We'll come alongside your team to build a biblically-inspired justice program.

Virtual
Events

REQUEST A VIRTUAL EVENT

We also offer virtual events. This a great budget-friendly option that still offers your group real-time interaction with Monique and Krista. This format is ideal for small groups, youth groups, mom groups, or campus chapters.

We provide you with a library of pre-recorded talks. You choose the one that's right for your group. After your group watches the video, our speaker(s) will jump on Zoom for a live Q/A. If you'd like more information about that option, be sure to mark that on your interest form.
