About this listen

"Between the Christianity of this land, and the Christianity of Christ, I recognize the widest possible difference." (Frederick Douglass, 1845)

The prophets of old were not easy to listen to because they did not flatter. They did not cajole. They spoke hard words that often chafed and unsettled their listeners. Like the Old Testament prophets, and more recent prophetic voices like Frederick Douglass, Dr. Eric Mason calls the evangelical church to a much-needed reckoning. In a time when many feel confused, complacent, or even angry, he challenges the church to:

  • Be aware - to understand that the issue of justice is not a black issue, it's a kingdom issue. To learn how the history of racism in America and in the church has tainted our witness to a watching world.
  • Be redemptive - to grieve and lament what we have lost and to regain our prophetic voice, calling the church to remember our gospel imperative to promote justice and mercy.
  • Be active - to move beyond polite, safe conversations about reconciliation and begin to set things aright for our soon-coming King, who will be looking for a woke church.

Absolute dribble !

"Woke Church" is problematic in its attempt to merge social justice with Christian doctrine. The book's redefinition of core biblical beliefs is both confusing and troubling, as it distorts traditional theology to fit a contemporary social agenda. Rather than providing a thoughtful integration of faith and justice, it undermines essential biblical teachings, leading to a confusing and misleading portrayal of Christianity. For readers who value traditional doctrine, this book is an unwelcome departure from foundational truths.
The Gospel is what the world needs, not people apologizing and "compensating" for historical sins over which they had no control; reverse racism isn't the answer.
