Summary

Summary Chuck Mingo and Troy Jackson discuss their book, Living Undivided: Loving Courageously for Racial Healing and Justice, and the work they do with Undivided, a nonprofit organization focused on racial justice. They emphasize the importance of relationships, community, and personal transformation in the pursuit of racial healing and justice especially within the church. Takeaways The church has a crucial role to play in countering white Christian nationalism and fostering racial healing and justice. Empowering people and helping them move from feeling powerless to claiming power and community is essential for justice. Understanding power and its potential for manipulation and abuse is crucial in the pursuit of racial justice. Moving past debates and taking action is more important than dissecting words and terms.
