Sobre este e-book
Discover a boundless love for your Black Neighbor with this inspiring and actionable guide to moving toward racial healing.
“Griffin’s work invites us to embark on a transformative journey toward a more inclusive and loving Christian community.”—J. W. Buck, PhD, author of Everyday Activism
Jesus calls you to love your neighbor, and in the fight against racial injustice, that call includes your Black Neighbor: your Black colleagues, the Black congregants at church, the Black family in your neighborhood. Yet maybe you’re unsure of how best to show your love, or maybe you fear either saying or doing the wrong thing.
In Loving Your Black Neighbor as Yourself, Chanté Griffin equips you to see and love your Black Neighbor with God’s deep, holistic love. Using Black Love Lenses birthed from African American cultural values, you’ll learn meaningful ways through which you can see and care for your Black Neighbor:
• Intimacy: cultivate intentional closeness and community
• Honor: show overflowing respect and love
• Stand Up: use your voice and influence to advocate
• God’s Gifts: allow God’s resources to flow through you
• The Spirit of Love: love lavishly through intercessory prayers
Through guided readings, prayers, and heart checks, you’ll undergo a spiritual and relational transformation that grows a deeper love for your Black Neighbor and yourself. Are you ready to answer Jesus’s call?
