“The Belhar Confession calls the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) to be strengthened in our inner being. The call is to recognize that this life is not ours. We belong to God despite challenges to conform to the world’s way of thinking.”
J. Herbert Nelson
Lenten Reflections on the Confession of Belhar
This Lenten season I am using a new resource to explore the Belhar Confession: Lenten Reflections on the Confession of Belhar, edited by Kerri N. Allen and Donald K. McKim. The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), in which I serve as a teaching elder (pastor), added the Confession of Belhar to our Book of Confessions in 2016. This confession came from the Dutch Reformed Mission Church during its historic struggle against apartheid in South Africa.
See you along the Trail.
