Synopsis

Where does racism come from? How should Christians respond rightly, without falling into the error of color-blindness or ignorance? And how do we equip kids with a gospel lens on these issues? The Gospel In Color For Parents directly addresses these vital questions, equipping parents to provide their children with a biblical perspective on race and racism, while celebrating the gospel s power to bring about reconciliation.

Through rich illustrations and approachable text, this book and its companion volume, The Gospel In Color For Kids, help parents present their kids with big ideas in an engaging way.

Review:

This book is readable, so as to engage the imagination of our children. This book is relevant, so as to push back against the very present ideas that constrict the image of God on darker skin. And the book is rich, so as to mobilize parents to carefully give 'The Talk' the greater one: the one about God s great love for humanity!" --KB, Hip Hop Artist
