I ran across this outstanding testimony. It is so exceptional in thinking and in writing that I am putting it on both our church site and mine. It provides an insightful perspective for Black History Month. It is by new professor Esau McCaulley at Northeastern Seminary. It is sobering as it helps us to see how much our personal history affects our views of history. But it is also inspiring because it testifies how the gospel of Jesus provides a common story that bridges our diversities and brings all who will listen and submit to Jesus together into one holy narrative.
