Definitely going to be controversial. Regardless of his opinions on some matters, I think it's the last three paragraphs that are some of the most fundamentally true:
Definitely going to be controversial. Regardless of his opinions on some matters, I think it's the last three paragraphs that are some of the most fundamentally true:
"No one is innocent of this racial divide if we don't do something to promote change. I am not talking about more talking; I am talking about doing.
Do you have friends that don't look like you? Does everyone in your church look, talk, and sound alike? Are you willing to get out of your comfort zone, to get in someone else's comfort, to teach them how to get out of their comfort zone? Are you willing to help change the conversation about racism and then do what you talk about? Are you willing to do it God's way like Jesus did in his time when there was just as great a racial divide as we are facing today?
Remember what you are speaks so loud I can't hear a word you say."
