Sermon
Family Meeting: Race and Current Events
Cross Church
Speaker: Nick Floyd
June 15, 2020 · 23 min
Summary
A pastor addresses racial injustice and systemic racism in the context of George Floyd's death, calling the church to mourn with those suffering, pray for justice and wisdom, and act through personal conviction, community engagement, and gospel transformation. The message frames racism as a spiritual issue ultimately resolved through Christ's reconciling power and calls believers to embody love across racial lines.
Highlights
To do anything less than empathize with their pain, listen to me, it's un-Christian.
The issue of racism is a spiritual issue. Racism isn't a bad habit. It isn't a mistake. It is sin.
Love like family, look like heaven. That's who we want to be.
