 Today on the CBN News Daily Rundown, as we celebrate Black History Month, 700 Club and Faith Nation News Anchor John Jessup goes deep on his experiences growing up biracial and his take on where the body of Christ is on issues of diversity and racial unity. 

"Today if someone were to ask 'what's the community with which you most strongly identify' before I'd say Korean or Black I'd say Christian," John tells today's host Eric Philips.

Learn more about John's journey and perspective today on the Rundown.
