Living Undivided: Loving Courageously for Racial Healing and Justice - Hardcover

by Chuck Mingo (Author), Troy Jackson (With), Holly Crawshaw (With)

As the church and as a country, we've often neglected and avoided addressing the impact and ongoing reality of racism. We've been more focused on order than justice, more concerned with social media posturing than solidarity, more committed to judgment than repentance. But God's people are called to more. We need to lead the way to true racial healing, solidarity, and justice.

Through enlightening history and eye-opening personal stories, Living Undivided will equip and empower you with the biblical, transformative tools you need to move from just hoping and wishing for racial justice to actionable change that makes a difference in your life and the lives of churches, neighborhoods, and cities.

An invitation to freedom rooted in love and justice. If you want to build a new future together with others in a world that desperately needs change, this book is for you!--Dr. Brenda Salter McNeil, author of Becoming Brave and Roadmap to Reconciliation 2.0

"Chuck Mingo and Troy Jackson have worked faithfully with thousands of real people who were willing to listen to one another, trusting the Spirit to make a way toward beloved community. Living Undivided is the fruit of that work, offered as a feast for all who hunger and thirst for justice."--Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, author of Revolution of Values

"In Living Undivided, Chuck and Troy do more than opine the 'why we should' of Christian unity. They share experientially forged, proven, and practical 'what to do and how to do it' insights that will equip and challenge you to walk, work, and worship God together as one with others, beyond the distinctions that otherwise divide this world."--Dr. Mark DeYmaz, pastor, author, and CEO/president of Mosaic Global Network

"Chuck and Troy don't have an agenda other than seeing different people act as one. They adeptly sidestep or disarm landmines that bog conversations down. Our country will benefit from as many people as possible reading this book."--Brian Tome, founding and senior pastor of Crossroads Church; author and host of The Aggressive Life podcast

"At this troubled moment in America comes this brilliant book to remind us that unconditional love has the power to heal and to bind us together across the divides of race and faith. Chuck and Troy have brought us to the altar of racial healing and baptized us in the waters of radical love--a love that conveys hard truths, asks and answers tough questions, and allows us to lament and learn to live together. Amen!"--Rev. Alvin Herring, executive director of Faith in Action

"This deeply moving book is a fierce invitation to engagement that is smart, rooted, and courageous, moving toward a renewed restored society of justice."--Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary
