“Take away from me the noise of your songs; I will not listen to the melody of your harps. But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.” -Amos 5:23-34

In our world today, a clarion call has gone out demanding justice and equality for our black brothers and sisters. As children of God, we must answer this call by standing on the side of righteousness and justice. This requires more than an empty ceremony and useless noise, but a deliberate effort to create what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. called a beloved community.
