The Source of My Identity
As pale as I am, I consider myself to be a black pastor. After all, some African Americans consider me their pastor. In that sense, I am also a gay pastor, a straight pastor, a poor pastor, a rich pastor, a fat pastor, a skinny past…
An interesting post from my Pastor. Attending Transformation House (the church Tony Moore pastors in) has motivated me to reexamine basic concepts such as grace, judgement, forgiveness, and the concept of “generational curses.” Too many times in our “zeal for righteousness” we forget the people caught up in a particular scenario, choosing to label them a sinner rather than expend energy and time in helping them find a solution. It’s always easier to yell at someone for pondering an abortion rather than helping them find the necessary financial and material resources to raise their child in this chaotic world. I’ll end this post here (perhaps I should have created a video instead?) but just a semi-random thought that crossed my mind.
