Slow To Speak and Quick To Listen (An Excerpt From The Race-Wise Family)

Helen Lee and Michelle Reyes
May 19, 2022
Politics, Practical Justice, Race, Theology
"When we hold the Bible in one hand and the news in the other, our posture as a race-wise family will be to listen often and well, and to be slow to speak. We will challenge ourselves to hear all the voices in a news story and then respond in ways that are honoring and loving toward those who have been victimized or who are struggling."

Michelle Reyes
March 25, 2021
General, Practical Justice, Race

Michelle Reyes

Church Life, Politics, Theology
We must still raise our voices to denounce Christian pursuit of power and boldly denounce cycles of violence perpetuated in the name of Jesus. We also seek that justice be given to those involved in last week’s events. Nevertheless, we can still own and apologize to a watching world the sins that our fellow siblings have committed.

Stare Racism in the Face

General, Practical Justice, Race
We need to stare racism in the face and boldly change the future to ensure horrors like Arbery’s killing are less likely to happen again.
