Black History Month invites more than remembrance. It calls the Church to examine how it responded when injustice was unmistakable and silence felt reasonable. This reflection explores the moral clarity of the Civil Rights Movement, the cost of the Church’s silence, and why truth demands courage rather than delay.
In a world trained to distrust what it sees and hears, Christians face a quiet temptation to confuse discernment with cynicism. This reflection contrasts George Orwell’s warnings about manipulated truth with Scripture’s invitation to encounter truth through revelation, trust, and courage.

This reflection explores the quiet cost of looking away—and the courage it takes to follow Christ toward those who are unseen.
