After all the disillusionment, hurt, and division, it’s fair to ask if the church still matters.
In 'Becoming God’s Family,' @carmenjoyimes.bsky.social offers a profoundly hopeful answer. She reminds us that God has always delighted in creating a global, intergenerational family.

It's possible to be faithful in the public square without joining the culture war. In fact, there's a model. The Black church's social action tradition has long rejected the idea that overcoming polarization means moral compromise.

But letting go is hard.
