Those were the toxic and tumultuous days of racial segregation and Jim Crow Laws. It was a time in our great nation when a black man could not be where I am today. I stand in one of the most strategic and sacred places not only in history but also in the history and life of AGRM as the first African-American to serve a network of 300 rescue missions as minister-at-large. AGRM is passionate about demonstrating the power of the love of the Lord Jesus Christ. I have witnessed the heart of AGRM and believe it is a place of biblical reconciliation. I am not saying that AGRM is perfect but it is a legitimate place of seeking to be what God has called all Christian ministries to be in this day. It has been said that we need more black lead- ersthats the solution. It has been said that we need more blacks in Congressthats the solution. It has been said that we need more black business- men and womenthats the solution. I am grieved to say that these solutions are no solutions at all. The answer is not racial reconcilia- tion but Christo-centric reconciliation. The time has come for us as a Christian nation of God- fearing Christ-followers to be reconciled first with Christ. Then we will be able to see racial reconciliation and walk in the love of Jesus. CHRIST TRUMPS COLOR J esus says For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink I was a stranger and you invited me in I needed clothes and you clothed me I was sick and you looked after me I was in prison and you came to visit me Matthew 253536. These words of Jesus are taken to heart each and every day in missions that belong to AGRM. There is growing biblical racial diversity in our member missions. Such diversity is impossible 24 WWW.AGRM.ORG MAYJUNE 2016
