This Work is About Joy
| The Rev. Philip DeVaulThis Work is About Joy
But what I want us to remember is that when it comes to racial justice healing and reconciliation, like all real justice and all real healing and reconciliation, when it comes to this, God is doing the work anyway. The question is not, “Will God destroy racism and make things right?” That's not the question. The question is. “Will we join with God in that work?” That's the actual question. When it comes to the work of love and healing in the world, when it comes to reconciliation, the question for the Christian, the question for the Church is not, “Is God even here doing it?” Our question is, “Can we recognize the powerful presence of God?” And “Will we roll up our sleeves and join in the work?”
