#Reflection #Repost (after powerful workshop on Preaching in the Presence of Trauma --- Honestly, I dont know a black preacher in this country, who is faithful to their ministerial responsibility, who is NOT perpetually preaching in the presence of trauma. The mandate of prophetic preaching requires that we engage immensely and even erotic-ly with the plight of oppressed people in the political context in which they (we) live. One of the byproducts of trauma is rage. Baldwin says, To be black in America is to be in a constant stage of rage! Were in constant rage because of the constant trauma...Therefore to be faithful to the call requires on some levels that we be mad as hell every time we preach! We ought to be mad as hell that we always catching hell! Im honored to have shared in the fellowship of angry preachers this weekend... #SophiesTable #DearPreacher #NoAngerNoAnointing
