In this book, Francois calls people of all racial backgrounds...

"Talking about Race argues Christians must understand why they avoid honest conversations about race if they want to enjoy authentic racial unity in their churches. Isaac Adams shows that if we can understand the reasons for our reluctance to speak about race we can grow together in love rather than apart in bitterness" -- Provided by publisher.

"Two of the world's greatest crises, systemic racism and environmental destruction, share the same origin story. Both are rooted in economic forces that exploit and oppress both people and land. Pastor and activist David Swanson shows how we have failed our God-given duty as caretakers of creation, and how that failure has resulted in the exploitation of people and the extraction of natural resources. Racial and ecological injustice share the same...

Pastor Albert Tate, a charismatic speaker and rising leader within the megachurch world, guides readers in acknowledging this fact and reimagines discipleship by encouraging siblings in Christ to sit together in racial discomfort and examine the role they may play in...

"So what happened to Christianity in America? This is the question my brother Jonathan faces head-on in this book. He follows this question to the heart of America's original sin, and he invites all of us to join him there and face another question: is our God greater than America's racism? This is a question we must answer, no matter the color of our skin. Slaveholder religion has infected every corner of the church in America-including the black...
