Key Quotes from Dr. Doug Logan, Jr.
“I like to frame up the conversation about racial reconciliation with just reconciliation because that’s what we’ve been given.”
“Reconciliation can only happen because God does it.”
“A cosmic fall requires a cosmic answer. And so reconciliation is so big and we talk about it as if biblical reconciliation is like Dr. Phil to help us become better friends. No, God’s reconciliation is going to fix the world!”
“Conciliation comes after the confrontation…Those confrontations that create the conversation often create the reconciliation that we already have [in Jesus] that we now begin to live out.”
