African American brothers and sisters, I lack appropriate words but I am so sorrowful for the unrelenting losses and griefs you are bearing. The endurance, strength, honesty of lament & unwillingness to surrender joy I continually see in you humbles & teaches me. Jesus, be near.

@JayKranda I can’t tell you what to add or what to take away. That will only come from your relationahip w Jesus. But being black and being educated in white institutions to include a Th.M from Dallas Theo Sem has given me a different vantage point than most.

@JayKranda Yes he did but as my white brother in Christ you could offend readers black and others by appearing to use the Bible and miss the message. To me, it’s not either or. It’s both and.
