This phrase changed my life.
I was angry at churches.
Christians everywhere had let me down.
I couldn’t be a part of it anymore.
It had all been just for show.
Then, Kendra Creasy Dean (a brilliant human and leader) said these words.
It made so much sense.
I could let go of my anger and pain
I could forgive the stupidity of people
I could being healing.
Before new life is brought into this world
there will be pain.
And in the history of the Christian church right now
we are experiencing A LOT of pain
But hold fast, dear friends,
because the pain is not pointless,
Something new is coming.
