21. Does the Church promote “Grind Culture?”
Through slavery, Reconstruction, Jim Crow and even today, the Church has been a place where African-Americans can lead groups, hold elected office and fully participate in organizations. The Church has stood in the gap, where society failed African-Americans. However, the Church can also require and expect a great deal from its leaders and members. Churches are expected to respond to every community trauma, police shooting, neighborhood disinvestment, financial neglect, racism, classism, gentrification, pandemics, failing schools, food deserts, congregational care, etc. etc. Once you become active in a church, it can feel like your name keeps coming up, to do more and more. As if all of your free time is now church time. The work feels never ending and church work can become a grind.
