USA TODAY BESTSELLER! The Ground Is Moving The death of George Floyd at the hands of police in the summer of 2020 shocked the nation. As riots rocked American cities, Christians affirmed from the pulpit and in social media that "black lives matter" and that racial justice "is a gospel issue." But what if there is more to the social justice movement than those Christians understand? Even worse: What if they've been duped into preaching ideas that actually oppose the Kingdom of God? In this powerful book, Voddie Baucham, a preacher, professor, and cultural apologist, explains the sinister worldview behind the social justice movement and Critical Race Theory--revealing how it already has infiltrated some seminaries, leading to internal denominational conflict, canceled careers, and lost livelihoods. Like a fault line, it threatens American culture in general--and the evangelical church in particular. Whether you're a layperson who has woken up in a strange new world and wonders how to engage sensitively and effectively in the conversation on race or a pastor who is grappling with a polarized congregation, this book offers the clarity and understanding to either hold your ground or reclaim it.            … (mere)

Every Christian should read this! It is the most Biblically sound book on the topics of SJW and CRT on the market. Voddie Baucham has written for such a time as this. This book is the absolute truth about race and the church today. The last chapter was beautifully encouraging for God's people. Just read it.... let go of your worldly perspectives and soak in the truth in these pages. ( )

Pastor Voddie T. Baucham, Jr. (who just happens to be black) has written an informative and scripture-based book about Critical Social Justice politics and its step-brothers CT/CRT/I. He gives reasons for the need to discredit BLM and their ilk as the opportunists (my word) they are. We need to turn to Christ and the redemption He brought to the world. We all need the power of forgiveness to defeat the power wielded by people in the public eye who stir up such hate.
This is a must-read for pastors, politicians, parents, people of color, and the average Joe. I do not have the words to say what this book has meant to me. Read it for yourself. Buy one for a friend. We don't need more rhetoric. We need to speak "truth in love" and teach our children the redemption found in the pages of the Bible.
I gave this book 5 stars and highly recommend it. ( )

A bit sloppy, but he has a few good points (and a few bad ones) ( )

Wow. Right-wing propaganda books tend to be poorly written, and this one is no exception. After misrepresenting critical theory, critical race theory, social justice, and many other concepts through reductionist snippets and presentations, the author devotes several pages to reassuring the reader how awesome and amazing he is. *yawn*

Ultimately, the entire book is a simultaneous attempt to justify bigotry and oppression through religion and to stroke the ego of the author. I made it to the end just because I wanted to have the full context before coming here to give this such a poor rating.

The mental gymnastics and conceit present in this book definitely stand out, but they are all for naught when it comes to universal, social truths. Quite simply: if the notion that we need to identify and dismantle systemic oppression threatens the continued existence of your religion, it's unlikely that your religion is truly based on the teachings of Christ.

I started this book knowing exactly where Baucham would be going but I never imagined how he would get there. He attacks gospel-loving Christians who seek to undo the strongholds of sin in this world with gross generalizations, half-truth, and downright deceptive presentation of their work/ministry (see his treatment of Onwuchekwa on p. 117, Platt on p. 121, and Shia Linne on p. 166). His tactics are slanderous and need to be repented of.

Baucham is a very smart man but this book is sloppy and it’s citations are spurious, weak, and deceptive. (See his citation on XVI where he leads the reader to believe all his quote is from Delgado but in reality he adds his own editorial quotes which are themselves misleading).

Time and time again he lumps Christians who seek to undo the deep-seated effects of racism and white-supremacy in our culture and nation with the founders of CRT. If you don’t agree with his political persuasion or answer to racism you have “gone beyond the gospel”. This book tears down and divides the people of God whom Christ prayed would be one. He claims to love the Christians he disagrees with with yet slanders and misrepresents their words and assumes their motives.

This is a hastily printed book with poor scholarship, cheap shots, deceptive mis-characterizations, and needless snark. Baucham is better than this book and you would be better to read something else. ( )
