New Times and Old Times

In this Black History Month reflection, Rev. David Harris reflects on the tension and responsibility of speaking from a white perspective while lifting up the urgency of justice, equality, and diverse voices. Drawing on history, scripture, and personal experience, he challenges systems of racism, exclusion, and oppression, presents Jesus as a disruptor of unjust social orders, and calls Christians to a costly discipleship rooted in compassion, solidarity with the marginalized, nonviolence, and hope sustained by the Spirit.
