WE SPEAK PEACE OVER FERGUSON IN JESUS NAME!

 

Christian leaders have now responded to the situation in Ferguson; many leaders turned to Twitter as a platform to offer words of spiritual guidance and prayers for peace. 

President of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary Al Mohler wrote, “We are witnessing a portrait of civilization in meltdown. These images will be long seared into the nation’s conscience. They must be.”

From Christian author Jen Hatmaker: “The collective cries of the black community should move & grieve us, Church. We mourn with those who mourn & act justly, love mercy.” 

President and CEO of World Relief Steven Bauman said, “We need each other now, black and white, to grieve, to empathize, to create a better tomorrow.” 

Leith Anderson, President of the National Association of Evangelicals posted, “With heavy heart ... watched Ferguson on TV much of last night/this morning. Praying that God will bring unexpected good from all the pain.”

Authorities in Ferguson have recently reported that the violence that followed the jury decision has died down.
