One Human Race
God's intention for humans was to never be divided by race. Let's be clear: God wants Christians to unite; Satan wants Christians to divide. Racial disunity is alive and well among Christians, and unfortunately, the world is watching.

In One Human Race: Five Stages to Empower Transformative Change, Dr. Jeff McGee lays out two parts: the first part of the book gives a biblical and historical account of race and the concept of race. The second part of the book introduces a practical and theoretical model that equips leaders to dismantle systemic racism through the love, empathy, and compassion of Jesus Christ.
Dr. McGee's Cross-Cultural Model of Collaboration provides a theoretical method for Christian leaders to dismantle systemic racism within their churches and organizations. The hope is that you will begin to utilize the model to show God's love and true desires for those who are racially different than us.
