Christians, I implore you to understand the context of the Scripture you are quoting. Far too often, Christians attack those outside the church with verses meant for those inside. The gospel welcomes, then transforms. It doesn't transform, then welcome.

The President posted racist idiocy on the same day he made a mockery of the National Prayer Breakfast while also being mentioned 38,000 times (and counting) in the correspondence of a sex trafficking ring. Stop excusing him.

Racism is anti-neighbor and anti-Christ. Where it is dismissed, it breeds. Where it is downplayed, it flourishes.

One of the common justifications I hear for the President’s deplorable behavior is that he’s just trolling his opponents. He doesn’t really mean it, and we shouldn’t take him so seriously.
What those who make such claims don’t realize is that they’re essentially describing this guy:
“Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, ‘I am only joking!’” (Proverbs 26:18–19)
Even if it's true about Trump, it doesn’t strike me as much of a consolation.

February is #BlackHistoryMonth .
An opportunity to remember that “I don’t see color” isn’t the objective & doesn’t honor the uniqueness of God’s creative genius.
Instead, we recognize, learn, understand & celebrate the contributions of black people in these United States.🙏🏽

Fellow whites who want Black Americans & PoC to receive equal justice & for egregious white supremacy to be dismantled, speak up. Don’t be fragile. You know what’s right. Expect:
“You’re causing division!” Eye roll. “What about abortion??” I’m pro-ALL-life, conception to coffin.

I don’t know how many of you journal but if you’re even remotely inclined toward the basics like jotting down a date with a few sentences alongside it, this could be an immensely meaningful practice thru this crisis. It’s therapeutic to process with words & it’s gold years later.

I did not surrender to a calling of man when I was 18 years old. I surrendered to a calling of God. It never occurs to me for a second to not fulfill it. I will follow Jesus - and Jesus alone - all the way home. And I will see His beautiful face and proclaim, Worthy is the Lamb!

There are simply no gospel grounds for defending White supremacy. None. This isn’t theological rocket science. The Savior of the world gave Himself on the cross for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God & Father, wearing a brown body.

listening to understand doesn’t mean you are obligated to agree it just means you might make a friend rather than an enemy, you might build a bridge instead of a wall .
