(ChurchLeaders) Protests and violence have erupted in Louisville, Kentucky, after it was announced Wednesday that a grand jury had decided not to charge any police officers in the shooting of Breonna Taylor. As the outrage over the decision about the Louisville shooting further emphasizes the deep divisions in the U.S., Christian leaders are expressing their own grief and calling people to mourn with those who mourn.
“It’s all kind of numbing,” Christian artist Lecrae tweeted. “On one hand it’s like I KNOW I’m not crazy there’s a real problem in our country. On the other I’m sad that everyone doesn’t see it and some don’t want to. Of course I know God is at work. It’s just tough to process it all.”
