Healing Our Collective Wound

By Joni Schwartz-Chaney

The church in the United States is in transition, polarization, even woundedness. In part this has to do with changing demographics, norms, and having a racial history we have never fully dealt with. The United States needs healing from its collective and historic wound of racism but, with many Americans being racially illiterate, whether willfully or in denial, the wound continues to fester. The Christian church in all its varieties is in special need of this healing and through Christ is positioned to be the balm this country so desperately needs. Healing Our Collective Wound: Racial Literacy and the Church examines our collective racial woundedness and illiteracy providing hope for healing and suggesting a way forward through the church.
