Reimagining Work: Biblical Equity at Work is an event for anyone wanting to gain an understanding of equity in the workplace. What does it mean to truly commit to fair and right treatment of all people? How can we confront misconceptions about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in order to change the current narrative?
With examples related to our places of work, we will demonstrate as well as create space for attendees to engage in meaningful conversations on how to promote equity and justice in their communities, as seen through the heart of Jesus.
As part of CFWLA’s vision to reframe vocation and reshape culture, we invite you to join us for our next event in our Reimagining Work series with our eleventh gathering focused on exploring biblical equity in Los Angeles.
Light refreshments will be provided along with time to connect with fellow attendees and our speakers.

FEATURED SPEAKER & ARTIST:
Myesha Reynolds — Founder, Equity Lens Consultants
Chanelle Contreras — Spoken Word Artist
Myesha began Equity Lens Consultants to shift the current narrative around equity. She believes that equity is something that applies to everyone, therefore all people are invited to the table to discuss it! She is confident that if we can unite on a shared belief that equity is the quality of being fair, we can really begin to better understand how to operate fairly towards others.
It is the mission of ELC to shed light on the inequities that exist in society while providing practical and relevant solutions. Myesha’s deepest desire is to see real equity achieved in every space. She is determined to lead others in developing a solid understanding of equity in order to correctly identify inequitable practices and replace them with equitable ones.
With a Master of Arts in Education, Myesha is passionate about educating others on this topic. Experienced in addressing problems, investigating root causes, and helping to implement successful resolutions, She truly helps people to grow in their understanding of equity. Myesha believes it is imperative that we no longer allow the word equity to divide us if we want to see real change.
Equity Lens Consultants provides quality and relevant equity consulting and coaching to schools, businesses, organizations, churches, or individuals committed to implementing equitable policies and practices.
