Forgive Us

Forgive Us is a call to confession. Christianity in America has significant brokenness in its history that demands recognition and repentance.

"Working for each other's liberation helps free us all." ~ @jnicolemorgan #LiberatingEvangelicalism

[Rev Dr Mae E Cannon @MaeEliseCannon]

I've so appreciated @Evang4Justice because decentering whiteness doesn't mean whites can't use our gifts, submit to biblical community, continue to lead, and be faithful to God's call. We must not do so out of our privilege & inherent white supremacy.

[Rev Dr Mae E Cannon @MaeEliseCannon]

Yes! Faith in Jesus, liberation as "new creature" in Christ while recognizing how we are "structured by logics of oppression" ... and being set free. #LiberatingEvangelicalism

[Rev Dr Mae E Cannon @MaeEliseCannon]

So often white evangelicalism has domineered, imposed, colonized (i.e. women can preach/pastor brown bodies overseas as missionaries, but not white ones back home). Rather we should partner in the critical work of #LiberatingEvangelicalism.

[Rev Dr Mae E Cannon @MaeEliseCannon]

I believe the Bible can still be center to evangelical theologies as long as specific texts (think of all the justice verses in the Bible!) aren't excluded because of our white-centric framework. #LiberatingEvangelicalism

[Rev. Dan Stringer @RevDanStringer]

Pay attention to evangelicals of color.
Learn & share the stories of evangelicals of color.
Stop reducing evangelicalism to a white political brand.
#LiberatingEvangelicalism requires recognizing that evangelicalism is a diverse space that varies *A TON* by race and geography.

Sin is anything that breaks any of the relationships that God declared forcefully, abundantly, vehemently good in Genesis 1.
