The Power Of Turning Hope Into Action

We deserve a liberated future. Getting there requires hope that turns our prayers into direct actions that help build a better world for our people. Here’s how we get there.

Emancipatory hope is rooted in liberation, particularly in marginalized communities seeking freedom from oppression and injustice. It refers to a form of hope that is active, transformative, and liberating. 

We know faith without works is dead. Emancipatory hope involves envisioning and working toward a future characterized by justice, freedom, and equality for all our people. 

Prayer is a powerful tool, but its impact is amplified even more when we take direct action aligned with a liberated future. 

Psalms 146: 7a reminds us that He upholds the cause of the oppressed. God has always been on our side, guiding us through the trenches as we stand against injustice and shape a better world. 

Our hope becomes a tool for actualizing change when we commit to going all in. 

Hopeful to see hunger eliminated from our communities? Pray about how you can positively impact and then take action by contributing to your local pantry or food bank. Are you tired of Black women dying from a sky-high maternal mortality rate? Support organizations like Black Mamas Matter Alliance

Emancipatory hope encourages us to put our prayer into practice and to work together to build the liberated future we so deserve. It's God's will for us, and there's no better time to do the work than now.
