1. One day we should really talk about the false expectations of full-time vocational ministry black & brown students are given when we they go to evangelical seminaries. Such seminaries often assume ALL students have generational wealth & ministry contexts are wealthy as well. https://twitter.com/jennlucytyler/status/1283201300411420672
2. In reality, only a few minorities (those most assimilated), will have jobs within white evangelical spaces where there is indeed generational wealth & rest will go to contexts that require pastors to be bi-vocational; but all they got is a degree in Bible. Families struggle.
3. I should add, a large portion of white students will likely also have to be bi-vocational, but assumption often made and the posture of seminaries is largely presumptuous and assumes all will be full-time. Better expectations need to be set b4 folks spend so much time & money.
