Dear Church: A Love Letter from a Black Preacher to the Whitest Denomination in the Us by Lenny Duncan
“Dear Church, we are the ones we have been waiting for. No one else is coming. You are the generation that has been chosen for this time, this place, this moment in human history. Stop waiting for some sort of transformative leader to arise from the body politic or the body of Christ. It is you.”
“Church, somewhere along the way, we started to believe that the world was saying about us. That we no longer have a useful message to give the world. That we aren’t enough...That we are irrelevant in the fight for freedom in this country. That we don’t have a word to speak over this country’s politics or movements. That we aren’t in position to speak truth to power.”
A challenge. Be better church.
