The purpose of Required: God’s Call to Justice, Mercy, and Humility to Overcome Racial Division<\/em><\/strong> is to foster unity in the church across the racial spectrum to bring healing to communities and cities. This unity will be evidenced as apply the commands of Micah 6:8 toward justice, mercy, and humility. Practically the book speaks to how we exercise awareness, ownership, and agency in fostering intentional efforts to address the very racial divide in the church and society.<\/p>\n

In a March 2021 Gallup poll questioning how much Americans personally worried about race relations, 73 percent said they worried a great deal or fair amount. Seventy-one percent expressed being either very dissatisfied or somewhat dissatisfied with the state of race relations.<\/p>\n

A July 6, 2021, release of an InterVarsity Christian Fellowship survey of student attitudes on 127 campuses revealed that their most important social issue is racial justice (39 percent).<\/p>\n

We recognize that a divided church in a divided society cannot fulfill God’s purposes. We offer this book as a conversation and a roadmap toward engaging God’s church globally in the important work of unity and reconciliation rooted in justice, mercy, and humility.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tClick Here to Purchase\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n
