Dear John,
In the span of just a few weeks, the COVID-19 pandemic was suddenly overshadowed, and our nation’s attention shifted to an issue all too familiar in our country: racism.
Following the deaths of George Floyd in Minneapolis on May 25 and Rayshard Brooks in Atlanta only a few days ago, racial unrest has boiled over across America with protests and riots in major cities. We have seen resignations and indictments of local law enforcement officers. There is even movement in Washington, where our nation’s leaders are wrestling with policy solutions and searching for common ground.
Amid the constant headlines and national conversation, we must ask ourselves: how should we, as life-loving and life-affirming Christians, appropriately respond to injustice and violations of human dignity? How should our society productively address these issues, and how can we move forward?

For Life,
Brian Fisher
President
