An acclaimed, timely narrative of how people of faith have historically--up to the present day--worked against racial justice.
Starting today ..
A call that challenges black and white Christians alike to standup now and begin implementing the concrete ways Tisby outlines, all for a more equitable and inclusive environment among God\'s people.
It is a call from a place of love and desire to fight for a more racially unified church that no longer compromises what the Bible teaches about human dignity and equality.
The Color of Compromise Takes you on a historical, sociological, and religious journey: from America\'s early colonial days through slavery and the Civil War Covers the tragedy of Jim Crow laws, the victories of the Civil Rights era, and the strides of today\'s Black Lives Matter movement Reveals the cultural and institutional tables we have to flip in order to bring about meaningful integration Charts a path forward to replace established patterns and systems of Complicity with bold, courageous, immediate action Is a perfect book for pastors and other faith leaders, students, non-students, book clubs, small group studies, history lovers, and all lifelong learners The Color of Compromise is not a call to shame or a platform to blame white evangelical Christians.
You will be guided in thinking through concrete solutions for improved race relations and a racially inclusive church.
Equal parts painful and inspirational, it details how the American church has helped create and maintain racist ideas and practices.
The Color of Compromise is both enlightening and compelling, telling a history we either ignore or just don\'t know.
And a call for urgent action by all Christians today in response.
