Over time we’ve witnessed and felt the brokenness and pain of sin and it’s destructive force in distorting God’s vision of humanity through racism, racial injustice, bias, and inequality in the world. As a local church community, we have turned to the Word of God to guide us in what we believe, how we can care, and how we should take action. As we move forward our goal is to ultimately reflect God’s vision for “one new humanity.”(Ephesians 2:14-18)
What do we believe about racial injustice and inequality?
We believe God’s words supersedes man’s opinion and works as a compass to reflect God’s vision of one new humanity and withstand the sin of racism, racial injustice and inequality in the world.
The Mannahouse Eldership and Diversity Team have worked together to examine what the Bible says regarding racial justice and created the document below.
Our commitment is to be a church family who withstands the sin of racism, racial injustice and inequality as well as actively models Biblical justice
Our Prayer: Lord, renew our minds according to your Word so that our beliefs align with yours.
How do we care for those who have been wounded by racism?
We care for and value every person as an image bearer of God. We are grieved when people are hurt by racial prejudice and inequality.
