Welcome!
I’m Bub Kuns, and today we’re talking about wokeness again.
This idea of believing nearly all society’s problems are because of “white privilege” has done great damage to true racial reconciliation in America. Instead of encouraging the building of cross-cultural relationships — a biblical concept — wokeness unfairly stigmatizes all white people today as “oppressors” because of past historical injustices. Rather than engaging in useful conversations so society can move toward actual justice, woke advocates just vilify anyone who disagrees with them
As theologian Owen Strachan said, “In [wokeness], there is no grace and no love. There is only grievance, resentment, and condemnation. Wokeness judges us without knowing the hidden motives of our heart — knowledge only God possesses.”
In essence, wokeness does nothing to help society’s problems because it focuses on external things like skin color instead of internal heart issues that can only be changed through Jesus.
We’ll discuss other problems with wokeness next time.
