Got Faith?
I think these conversations are targeting much needed dialogue around faith within the black community. So many people have utilized Jesus, and claim that he works. Others have done the same, only to report different results. I believe that there are different factors and standards that dictate what will be "enough" to help someone stabilize and actualize their:
1) mental well being
2) spiritual appetite
3) personhood
4) place of being within community
Their is no right or wrong way. Except when we seek to harm others, deny autonomy, or bypass injustice.
This dialogue surrounding faith and spirituality proves that multiple perspectives can co-exist. And we can come to a common ground and still remain united as a community with varying perspectives. Because the ultimate goal is how we can elevate as a community within the different environments we exist in.
