A First Step toward Racial Reconciliation
Lament as a First Step
In this episode, Mark Vroegop, author of Weep with Me: How Lament Opens the Door for Racial Reconciliation, discusses the challenge of racial reconciliation and how the biblical practice of lament offers Christians from different backgrounds a common language for productive, God-honoring conversation. He shares from his own experiences walking alongside and learning from minority culture Christians, recounts the time that God opened his eyes to his own blindness while sitting in the office of an African-American pastor, and offers a response to those who wonder if the evangelical church in America will ever make real progress on these issues.
