“ARE YOU TIRED? WORN OUT? BURNED OUT ON RELIGION? COME TO ME. GET AWAY WITH ME AND YOU’LL RECOVER YOUR LIFE. I’LL SHOW YOU HOW TO TAKE A REAL REST. WALK WITH ME AND WORK WITH ME—WATCH HOW I DO IT. LEARN THE UNFORCED RHYTHMS OF GRACE. I WON’T LAY ANYTHING HEAVY OR ILL-FITTING ON YOU. KEEP COMPANY WITH ME AND YOU’LL LEARN TO LIVE FREELY AND LIGHTLY.”
Matthew 11:28-30

This cultural moment - Racial Tension
There is no question that our country is experiencing a reckoning moment when it comes to race in a way that we’ve not seen in recent times. The conversation about multiculturalism and equality is at a fever pitch, and is shaping every aspect of this current cultural moment. This begs the question, “Is it possible to find rest in the midst of the racial tension in our country?”
This Cultural Moment - OUR RESPONSE
When confronted with cultural issues, we all to often arrive on the scene unprepared. Because we haven’t been connecting to the source of life in God’s Spirit, we are only left to do what instinctually comes to us in our humanity. But, when we are listening to the voice of God, we have the resource of spiritual insight and wisdom to guide our steps.

Here, you’ll find thoughts about ideas and practices that will help you to find rest.
