Miles McPherson, founder of The Rock Church in San Diego, presents “a dialogue about race that we desperately need…a must go through” (Bishop T.D. Jakes, Mature Pastor, The Potter’s Home) and argues that we must figure out how to discover people not really by the colour of their pores and skin, but as God sees them—humans made in the image of God.

Pastor Kilometers McPherson, senior pastor from the Rock Church in NORTH PARK, addresses racial division, a topic many have shied from, for fear of asking the wrong question or about The Third Option: Hope for a Racially Divided Nation saying the incorrect thing. Some are oblivious towards the effect racism has, while some pretend it doesn’t can be found.

Also the church continues to be affected by racial division, with Weekend now being probably the most segregated day of each week. Christians, who are known as to love and honor their neighbors, have fallen into culture’s snare by siding with one group against another: us vs. them. Cops vs. protestors. Blacks vs. whites. Racists vs. the “woke.” The lure of choosing one option over another threatens God’s plan for unity among His people.

Rather than going combined with the culture, Pastor Mls directs us to find the Third Option: honoring the priceless worth of God’s image in every person we meet. He exposes common myths that keep people from engaging with those of different racial and cultural backgrounds, and recognizes the privileges and pitfalls that we all face.

The Third Choice challenges us to totally embrace God’s creativity and beauty, as expressed in the diversity of His people. By following steps and praying the prayers defined in his publication, Pastor Miles shows us how we can all become market leaders in unifying our areas, our churches, and the nation.
