“Using one’s voice to lift laments and praise is pastoral. Using one’s voice to speak truth to power, call out injustice, and advocate for the broken, is prophetic. Voice is a gift, and for those of us called by God to lead with justice, we have the responsibility of stewardship. May we use our voice with humility and compassion to create positive change in love of ourselves, God, and others.”
Sarah Renfro, pastor of connections at Geist Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Fishers, IN, from “Voice and Moxie” on the Luther Seminary Stewardship blog site
