Mkay... Here's the concern...

I read this... But I don't read this in a vacuum

I read this understanding the vast dysfunction and lack of accountability present in Evangelical life

The failure at every turn to hold power accountability

The failure to call for justice as we witness hypocrisy

The failure to say we will not abide these policies... This president... This administration

We watched white Evangelical pastors abide wickedness for 4 years and they held their noses because they were intoxicated with power

It's not a big... It's an Evangelical feature...

It's the character of evangelicalism...

I've sat in your churches... I've witnessed your ministry... I've heard your sermons... I've seen you write article after article begging to "get back to pastoring, ministry, faith"

But not a single time have you said "we were wrong... We repent"

Because the character of white supremacy is... Never repent

And after we leave this moment... If there is a future to intentional faith spaces... Love will need to be manifest through repentance... In thought, word, and deed

There are communities that have been obliterated by Donald John Trump's policies... If you stood by and accommodated those policies you're complicit

People have lost their lives... If you stood by... If you stood silent... You were complicit

Black male pastors... If you were going along to get along... You were complicit

I know we don't want to hear this... But love come with accountability.... If you do wrong... Ask to be forgiven and embody repentance

Model a better quality of love and accountability than... "Awe shucks we thought he was Cyrus but he was really Caesar"

Love may not keep a record... But the Lord does
