'Is the gospel that unites us more powerful than race that divides us? Where do you start Christians in a conversation about the vast topic of race in America? In this brief book, Isaac Adams gives us a wonderful resource to begin the journey. Adams points us to listening, empathy and love--along with prayer--as the place to start. He's right. This book will lower defenses and encourage love. I pray that God gives this book a great ministry among us, displaying the division-overcoming power of the gospel.'

Synopsis
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., Conversations about racism are as important as they are hard for American Christians. Yet the conversation often gets so ugly, even among the faithful who claim unity in Jesus. Why is that the case? Why does it matter? Can things get better, or are we permanently divided? In this honest and hopeful book, pastor Isaac Adams doesn't just show you how to have the race conversation, he begins it for you. By offering a fictional, racially charged tragedy in order to understand varying perspectives and responses, he examines what is at stake if we ignore this conversation, and why there's just as much at stake in how we have that discussion, especially across color lines--that is, with people of another ethnicity. This unique approach offers insight into how to listen to one another well and seek unity in Christ. Looking to God's Word, Christians can find wisdom to speak gracefully and truthfully about racism for the glory of God, the good of their neighbors, and the building up of the church. Some feel that the time for talking is over, and that we've heard all this before. But given how polarized American society is becoming--its churches not exempt--fresh attention on the dysfunctional communication between ethnicities is more than warranted. Adams offers an invitation to faithfully combat the racism so many of us say we hate and maintain the unity so many of us say we want. Together we can learn to speak in such a way that we show a divided world a different world. Talking About Race points to the starting line, not the finish line, when it comes to following Jesus amid race relations. It's high time to begin running., Just as we see in the world, there is broken trust between ethnicities in our churches. We see it on Twitter. We hear it in conversations. Every few weeks a new racially charged tragedy goes viral. When it does, we know what will happen: people take sides, while others feel trapped, torn, and confused in the middle. Among the many responses to these racial challenges, one is all too common: We shy away from dealing honestly about the divides, and in so doing, we hide from each other--hindering genuine love which bears witness to a watching world about Jesus. Even if we sit in the same churches, we wear masks to avoid one of our greatest fears: sharing what we sincerely think about race and racism with each other--either because we don't care to, or we don't feel safe to. With an honest and hopeful approach to racial dialogue, Isaac Adams tells a story to help us biblically sift through the fog and frustration of our racial standstill. He defines terms and represents sides fairly. And he shows how one of the church's hardest challenges--loving across racial lines--can become one of her most powerful testimonies to a divided and dividing world. Adams shows why the blessing of authentic racial unity is so desperately needed and how it is possible to maintain and enjoy. What if we, as brothers and sisters in Christ, could honestly reckon with race and have positive conversations that cause us to grow together rather than apart? What if we felt we could be ourselves in our churches--being both known and loved there? What might happen if we dropped our masks? Speaking of Race argues Christians must understand why they avoid honest conversations about race if they want to enjoy authentic racial unity in their churches. If we can understand the reasons for our surprising reluctance to speak about race, especially with those outside our own ethnicity, we can, by God's grace, grow together in love rather than apart in bitterness, and so better present represent Jesus to a watching, divided, and dividing world., In this honest and hopeful book, pastor Isaac Adams doesn't just show you how to have the race conversation, he begins it for you. In Talking about Race, Adams introduces you to a cast of diverse characters in a fictional, racially charged tragedy. As you meet each person in the unfolding narrative, you'll learn how to better understand varying perspectives and responses to racism. Adams brings us back to God's Word to find the wisdom we need to speak gracefully and truthfully about racism for the glory of God, the good of our neighbors, and the building up of our churches. Talking about Race is a pastoral invitation to faithfully combat the racism so many of us say we hate while maintaining the unity so many of us say we want.
