Required: God’s Call to Mercy, Justice, Mercy, Humility to Overcome Racial Division

This book aims to accelerate current and inspire future efforts toward the vision of justice expressed through a Church united across racial, ethnic, and tribal lines.

What Does God Require of Everyone?

Two spiritual leaders and friends—one Black, one White—have seen the injustice and racial hatred that has simmered under the surface of culture for decades, escalating in recent years.

In Required, Bishop Claude Alexander and Dr. Mac Pier, both theologians and practitioners who have crossed the racial divide for over thirty years, take their readers down the pathway of awareness, ownership, and action regarding how Christians participate in the conversation of race from a faith perspective.

Readers will be shown how they can:

  • Engage their world with justice, humility, and mercy.
  • Model behaviors that bridge difficult divides.
  • Follow God’s call toward conciliation and unity.
  • Make a practical difference in their own spheres of influence.

The vision of this book is to accelerate current and inspire future efforts toward the vision of justice expressed through a Church united across racial, ethnic, and tribal lines. Over forty Christians and Christian organization, institution, and movement leaders strongly endorse Required as a must-read book on overcoming racial division.
