A HEADLINE SHOUTS FROM A NEWSPAPERA DOZEN CHURCHES CHOOSE TO MOVE BEYOND RACIAL DIVISION AND OFFER HOPE OF RACIAL RECONCILIATION What type of witness are these churches making? Do you agree that authentic ministry seeks to effect the healing of our racial divisions? Many churches are reluctant to initiate anti-racism ministry because they are concerned it would contribute to divisions rather than reconciliation. This book offers specific steps that churches can take that will:1.Offer a way that churches can face racism in a positive and creative way.2.Share and join with multi-ethnic churches in demonstrating racial healing.3.Discover a deeper personal faith and spiritual depth in their church in the process.4.Show the larger society that there is a way to heal society’s divisions.5.Live in trust that God is not defeated by racism.In implementing these procedures, Christians can reaffirm the vision of God reconciling the world to God’s self and not counting our sins against us. RACISM DOESN’T NEED TO DEFEAT CHURCHES.RACISM CAN BE RECOGNIZED AND DEFEATED BY ACTIVE CHRISTIANSDrawing on the experience of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of South Africa,And a biblical guide to confession and forgiveness,Together with the discipline of Active Listening,This guide can assist you in demonstrating hope for our fractured world.I invite you to join me in that mission and nurture a deeper faith among Christians in the process.
