Review �Be the Bridge�catalyzes a truth-filled vision of courage and hope! Drawing from a deep well of spiritual practices, historical narratives, and personal experiences, Latasha Morrison engages readers on a critical journey toward God�s heart for humanity, one that promises to enlighten and unsettle us. With refreshing vulnerability and insight, this book unearths our racial brokenness and offers a communal salve of justice and restoration. A timely resource for a world in need of healing.��Jonathan Eng, justice advocate and campus pastor at Gateway Church, Austin�When it comes to the intersection of race, privilege, justice, and the church, Tasha is without question my best teacher.�Be the Bridge�is THE tool I wish to put in every set of hands. Put frankly, if we followed the path she writes about, the path of humility and repentance, courage and action, we would see the end of racism. It really is that simple. Tasha is one of the most important leaders in my generation.��Jen Hatmaker,�New York Times�best-selling author of�For the Love�and�Of Mess and Moxie�This book is a must-read primer for anyone seeking to be a peacemaker rather than just a peacekeeper. Latasha Morrison equips and encourages us to do the difficult but necessary work of dismantling the walls of systemic racism, confronting implicit racial bias while establishing an anti-racist purpose. For those wanting to understand and embody the deeply woven fabric of racial reconciliation and anti-racism work, this book will expose, educate, elucidate, and ultimately make you an intentionally conscientious neighbor.��Pastor Darryl Ford,�Ikon Community Church�When I want to know how to do the hard work of reconciliation and peacemaking, Latasha Morrison is one of the first people I go to. She�s introduced me to a new way of thinking while bringing together people of different perspectives, opinions, and histories. When she calls us to be a bridge to connect people to people, her challenge is more powerful, because she�s already been the bridge that has gotten us this far.��Reggie Joiner, founder and CEO of Orange�Through�Be the Bridge�Latasha Morrison offers a feast to the body of Christ. Vivid storytelling combines with sharp exegesis to draw readers onto the bridge of racial healing and justice. There, Morrison calls the body to face the truth�the whole truth and nothing but the truth. She does not pull punches. She does not make it pretty. Yet, this consummate bridge-builder lays foundations that hold the tension�and hold us together on the journey toward God�s kind of love.��Lisa Sharon Harper, president and founder of FreedomRoad and author of�The Very Good Gospel�I have known Latasha Morrison for over for a decade. Her commitment to racial healing, reconciliation, and unity is unparalleled. Her extraordinary new book,�Be the Bridge, is the blueprint the Christian church has been waiting for.��Lee Allen Jenkins, author, speaker, and senior pastor of Eagles Nest Church�Tasha Morrison gives us much needed guidance in this book on how to explore the tough dynamics of race, identity, and culture that doesn�t focus on simple, shallow solutions but helps us see in profound ways how we can transform ourselves and thus our communities in the way we act and think about race. Tasha masterfully weaves together her personal stories and experiences with history to make us aware of the human impact of racism�and then gives us the tools to respond. Tackling issues of race can seem daunting and overwhelming, but by providing us practical steps to engage laced in grace, truth, and mutuality, Tasha meets us where we are and helps us become better-formed disciples of Jesus to pursue a more holistic vision of the Good News for all people.��Jenny Yang, vice president of advocacy and policy at World Relief�Tasha Morrison has been an encourager, a trustworthy friend, and profound teacher to me over the past few years. Through this book, she can be that to you as well. Her words are full of truth and love, and will cause you to stop and wrestle with your own biased ideas and perspectives that may otherwise go unchallenged. I�m adding this book to my �everyone that loves Jesus should read this� list!��Jamie Ivey, bestselling author of�If You Only Knew�and host of The Happy Hour with Jamie Ivey�podcast�Be the Bridge�is essential reading for�everyone.�With great courage and compassion Latasha chose to pursue conversations on race and racial equity and in doing so birthed a global movement that reached beyond church walls and is touching society. Her work is vital because responding to racism and racial division�in our schools, businesses, communities, politics and yes even our churches�is something that we all desperately need to do. Our future depends on it. This phenomenal book is a message, a model and a mentor for exploring how to pursue justice and racial unity in the light of the gospel. It has the potential to change your life and transform your community.�Buy it immediately, and join in.��Jo Saxton, co-host of Lead Stories Podcast and author of�The Dream of You�Latasha Morrison is a champion of racial reconciliation and an advocate for racial justice.
