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.

Jenna Wysong Filbrun
May 25, 2021
General, Theology
However, is God directly responsible for one person’s healing while another suffers or dies? When God gets credit for the first outcome but not the second, it leaves the second person (and/or their loved ones) invisible, insignificant, and clearly excluded from God’s circle of care.

Christie Love
April 9, 2021
Books, Church Life, General
No one fully appreciates normal until it is taken away, and often normal slips away in the blink of an eye with little warning or preparation.

Anna Howard
March 1, 2021
Creation & Environment, General, Practical Justice
