Many Black people avoid Christianity because it's "the white man's religion." And honestly, that sounds like a valid reason. White Evangelicalism in America has been historically linked with racism, nationalism, and hatred, so how do we reconcile that as Black believers? Especially when our representation is few and far between. How do we love when it's not always reciprocated ?

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law (Galatians 5:22-23)."
The Holy Spirit dwells in us as our Helper and Advocate. Think about that: God Himself is in us, as Believers. But how does that impact our lives? How do we live differently? How do we know that we have the Holy Spirit? What is the evidence?

Doubts about self worth is something that plagues Gen Z unlike any other generation. And when you add the weight of feeling worthy in the eyes of God, it gets even more complicated. As imperfect Christians, we often feel like we don't deserve God's love, so how do we deal with this feeling of unworthiness?
