The goal of the Black Church Center for Justice & Equality is to reaffirm the social justice tradition of the Black Church by providing a platform for progressive theological debate, public policy advocacy and public engagement that will amplify the voices of progressive African-American faith leaders.
We believe that the GOSPEL of Jesus Christ speaks to the whole person (mind, body, and spirit). We believe that the GOSPEL speaks to the full actualization of life in this world and beyond.
Justice
We believe in the universal principle of JUSTICE. We affirm, “Righteousness and justice are the foundation of [God’s] throne…(Psalm 89:14).”
Equality
We believe in the EQUALITY of all human beings. We affirm that in Christ “there is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, and we are all one (Galatians 3:28)”
