We simply don’t speak enough about race in this country. People are currently very optimistic about race these days. I don’t know how people can believe we live in post-racial times when there are clearly so many offenses still being committed against ethnic groups everywhere. If we do live in a post-racial society then we really cannot tolerate such offenses and must speak out about them. Christians cannot be silent or still when they witness people devalued and dehumanized.

Those in Christ must work hard to move towards racial reconciliation and take it far beyond mere conversation. We need to blaze a path towards the future of the kingdom come. It starts with having our eyes opened to the reality of things now.

The goal for the church and calling for believers is not to look more diverse but to move into the neighborhood, step into the darkness and offer grace.

Keep us updated Dan.
