Repent, and Believe the Good News: Black Lives Matter!

Last updated on: November 26, 2018 at 2:45 pm By Guest Contributor

Recently, a sitting United States Senator from Mississippi “joked” about being on the front row of a public hanging, and she talked about making voting more difficult for people at “those schools.” Unfortunately, many of us white folk refuse to acknowledge the racism inherent in her statements because we are still unwilling or unable to see the long, terrible history of violence against African Americans and its lasting effects in our social structures and institutions.

CBF Podcast: A Conversation with Michael Wear, Author and Former Faith Advisor to Barack Obama

Last updated on: November 13, 2018 at 11:20 am By Guest Contributor

America is changing. Depending on who you are and what change you do or do not want to see, the talk of change will either bring about great anxiety or excitement. The change we are seeing is the result of an exhaustion to the all too frequent mass shootings, sexual harassment, and systematic racism. Again, that statement alone will either bring a response of resentment or amen. Read more

When Jesus Broke Up the “Boys-Will-Be-Boys” Club

Last updated on: October 1, 2018 at 12:24 pm By Guest Contributor

By Bert Montgomery A woman stands alone in front of an intimidating group of men reeking of smugness. They possess complete power over her life…and, her death. Was the male sexual offender there among them? We don’t know. He was not to be held accountable. What we do know is that the panel of men gathered have no interest in hearing her side of the story.

Finding Freedom from Slaveholder Religion: A Conversation with Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove

Last updated on: September 10, 2018 at 9:18 pm By Aaron Weaver

By Andy Hale Among white Americans a widely-shared sentiment is the notion that racism is part of our past. The election of the first African-American President of the United States is cited in support of this harmful claim that racism is a thing of the past. Yet, just a year since the violence in Charlottesville at the hands of white supremacists, the reality of persistent racism—individual and systemic—simply cannot be denied. “Many white people would rather do something to address...
