James H. Cone Quote
And yet the Christian gospel is more than a transcendent reality, more than going to heaven when I die, to shout salvation as I fly. It is also an immanent reality—a powerful liberating presence among the poor right now in their midst, building them up where they are torn down and propping them up on every leaning side. The gospel is found wherever poor people struggle for justice, fighting for their right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
