From the UK Church's complicity in the transatlantic slave trade to the whitewashing of Christianity throughout history, the Church has a lot to answer for when it comes to race relations. Christianity has been dubbed the white man's religion, yet the Bible speaks of an impartial God and shows us a diverse body of believers.

It's time for the Church to start talking about race.

Ben Lindsay offers eye-opening insights into the black religious experience, challenging the status quo in white majority churches. Filled with examples from real-life stories, including his own, and insightful questions, this book offers a comprehensive analysis of race relations in the Church in the UK and shows us how we can work together to create a truly inclusive church community.

We Need To Talk About Race and God Is Not a White Man

This is the book I didn’t think I needed to read. Pearls of insight and wisdom which has changed my thoughts, attitudes, language and behaviours, despite sincerely thinking all was okay. Ben’s experiences are enough, but there is so much more.

I wanted to be helped to see the current issues from someone who knew all about them, and was not disappointed. Informed, passionate, and a clear biblical perspective. A disturbing and challenging read, with helpful pointers at the end of each chapter for reflection leading to action.

An easy to read, clear and a sometimes moving introduction for people who are keen to live out diversity in their church family.
