Urban Apologetics Restoring Black Dignity With The Gospel
$22.40Add to cartAfrican-Americans have long confronted the challenge of dignity destruction caused by white supremacy. While many have found meaning and restoration of dignity in the black church, others have found it in ethnocentric socioreligious groups and philosophies. These ideologies have grown and developed deep traction in the black community and beyond. Previously found primarily in urban communities and conscious Hip-hop songs, now that we are in the Internet age, they have a broader reach than ever. Revisionist history, conspiracy theories, and misinformation about Jesus and Christianity are the order of the day. Many young African-Americans are disinterested in Christianity and others are leaving the church in search of what these false religious ideas appear to offer, a spirituality more indigenous to their history and ethnicity.
Edited by Dr. Eric Mason and featuring a top-notch lineup of contributors, Urban Apologetics is the first book focused entirely on cults, religious groups, and ethnocentric ideologies prevalent in the black community. It brings the church up to speed on the legitimate issues that blacks have with Western Christianity as well as the questions alternative religious groups pose about historic Christianity, and it applies the gospel to black identity to show that Jesus is the only one who can restore our identity.

Woke Church : An Urgent Call For Christians In America To Confront Racism A
$14.99Add to cartWe sometimes forget that Martin Luther King, Jr. was a pastor.
Woke Church will not only help Christians understand the times they live in, but also how to take their place in it. Those who marched with King had to sign a commitment to non-violence which included 10 promises. The first: to “Meditate daily on the teachings and life of Jesus.” The Civil Rights Movement was led by the church. And today with escalating racial tensions and fresh examples of injustice in nearly every news cycle, the world needs the church now more than ever. But the church in America seems to be sleeping rather than leading.
Eric Mason offers a penetrating commentary on our cultural moment and gives tangible suggestions for how we can walk forward together and be the church in a country of segregated Sunday mornings and widening racial divides.

Manhood Restored : How The Gospel Makes Men Whole
$14.99Add to cartThe earthly crisis within manhood will be there until Jesus returns, but in Christ men are pointed toward the gospel as the vision for renewal. Manhood Restored by exciting new pastoral voice Eric Mason combines theological depth with practical insights, putting men in step with a gospel-centered manhood that will enrich every facet of their lives.
Mason begins with The Scope of Manhood — looking first at why God created man, at the divine differences between man and woman, and what should drive the purpose of a man during his time on earth.
A section on The Problems in Manhood analyzes the false icons that lead to cultural caricatures of men — the businessman, the thug, the playboy, the athlete, etc. Mason then makes a connection to the cross-cultural fatherhood crisis, looking at the things men do to fill the void when their relationship with dad or God is not there.
Finally, The Redemption of Manhood sets Jesus as the true standard of biblical manhood, looking to his perfect example to redeem and restore a man’s life in the areas of sexuality, home, and work.
