Summary "Words of wisdom to the next genderation from the pioneer of the civil rights movement. John M. Perkins was born in Mississippi in the 1930s into a sharecropping family and lived through the hate-filled and tumultous decades thereafter. He has dedicated his life to biblical reconciliation. Now, at age 87, he entrusts the church with the truths he wants us to know while there's still time. [This book] looks at everything from lament and forgiveness to racial tensions and mutal fear. You'll learn why 'racial reconciliatino' isn't the goal. And most importantly, you'll learn how to walk forward on the path toward oneness in Christ. As racial tnesions rises, the world need the chuch to lead now more than ever. But ture leadership starts with listening. Let's gather round and lean in as wisdom speaks."-- Back cover.
