Racial Reconciliation in the church:
Ordinary relationships are really important for racial reconciliation. We need to be aware of just how much the media and how we interpret that media might be affecting the way that we view people of different ethnicities. Racial harmony needs to be sought after both interpersonallyas well as institutionally. While Dr. Ware primarily emphasized the need for interpersonal—or relational—racial harmony, he also mentioned that there are some practices that institutions can take that affect the ability or inability to pursue racial harmony. For example, the institutional church can structure its corporate worship culture in such a way that it is appreciative of minorities; an institutional action that will help lead to interpersonal multi-ethnic relationships. http://bit.ly/1hCF9jh
For the church (as a body):
Now is the time to listen in all the ways we were saying you should. Now is the time to have those lunches that provide opportunities to enter into the suffering of your people. Now is the time to sympathize with those who are deeply struggling. Now is the time to implement all that stuff you’ve read http://bit.ly/29Vj6Cb
