Book Description
In a time when racial tensions dominate headlines and social media feeds, many people find themselves struggling to understand the deeper roots of inequality and their own role in addressing these complex issues. Ken Wytsma, founder of the Justice Conference, offers a thoughtful exploration of these challenging realities through a Christian lens.
Drawing from his personal journey of discovering how privilege and inequality operate in society, Wytsma provides readers with essential insights for engaging meaningfully in contemporary discussions about race. Rather than offering simple answers, he guides readers through the historical and systemic foundations that have shaped current racial dynamics, helping them recognize patterns and structures they may never have noticed before.
This book serves as both an educational resource and a spiritual call to action. Wytsma connects the pursuit of justice with Christian faith, inviting readers to consider how their beliefs should inform their response to inequality. He addresses the discomfort many feel when confronting these topics, acknowledging the difficulty of examining privilege while emphasizing the importance of this inner work.
For those seeking to grow in their understanding of justice issues while remaining grounded in their faith, this book provides a framework for both personal reflection and meaningful engagement. Wytsma demonstrates that addressing inequality is not just a social responsibility but a spiritual imperative that can lead to profound personal transformation and more authentic witness.
