It’s Been One Month Since George Floyd…

Below is a poem I wrote, as well as some helpful resources from theologians and thinkers I respect, to help us all process the injustices and turmoil in our great country…

The Gospel (A Poem)

I will take your place, George Floyd. I will die for you.

I will take your place, Derek Chauvin…Step off of George’s neck and step onto my neck…I will die for you.

I will take your place, Outraged Protester. I will die for you.

I will take your place, regardless of your Race or your Case. And I will die for you.

Then I will lie, cold & lifeless, in a Pharisees’ tomb. Yes, crucified by GENTILES, but buried by JEWS.

BUT my death will be the death of Death. I will rise again – for ALL!

Indeed, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
