Whatever the color of our skin, there is much to grieve and lament over right now. So many of us are hurting. So many of us feel powerless to help. Those of us who are not people of color want to stand with our brothers and sisters, but sometimes are unsure how to.
But all of us can pray. And all of us must pray.
So we’ve invited women of color to help all of us lift our eyes to the Lord of all and speak to him as our Father about the times we’re walking through. Each day for the next week or two, visit this blog and you’ll find a video, voice recording, or written prayer that will help you to pray into this situation.
We’re honored that serving us today is Karen Ellis, Director of the Center for the Study of the Bible and Ethnicity at Reformed Theological Seminary, Atlanta, GA.
Karen Ellis is also a contributor to His Testimonies, My Heritage. Hear the voices of women of colour on the most important subject in any age—the word of God.
