Publisher's summary

This powerful book reimagines discipleship by begging us to acknowledge that racism exists in the Church—and offers the hopeful message that we can disciple it out.

It is not an accident that racism is alive and well in the American church. Racism has, in fact, been taught within the church for so long most of us don’t even recognize it anymore. Pastor Albert Tate guides all of us in acknowledging the racism that keeps us from loving each other the way God intends and encourages siblings in Christ to sit together in racial discomfort, examining the role we may play in someone’s else’s struggle.

How We Love Matters is a series of nine moving letters that educate, enlighten, and reimagine discipleship in a way that flips the church on its head. In these letters that include Dear Whiteness, Dear America, and Dear Church, Tate calls out racism in the world, the church, within himself and us. These letters present an anti-racist mission and vision for believers to follow that helps us to speak up at the family table and call out this evil so it will not persist in future generations.

Tate believes that the only way to make change is by telling the truth about where we are—relationally, internally, and spiritually. How We Love Matters is an exposition of relevant Biblical truth, a clarion call for all believers to examine how they see and understand each other, and it is a way forward toward justice, reconciliation, and healing. Because, yes, it is important that we love each other, but it is even more important how we love each other.

Be prepared for hard conversations that are vital to reconciliation! You WILL be uncomfortable when you read this! It will challenge your thinking and encourage you to move forward toward empathy with our siblings of Color.

Wow. Must Read!

This book is so good! I will be recommending to everyone and probably listening through a second time. Rich, deep, real content and reads like a biography in the best way.
This book is full of Jesus and thats the best compliment I could give.

Powerful and thought provoking

Loving, kind, and direct discussion on how we love one another, particularly when we have cultural and ethnic differences. An invitation to love better.

Challenged, humbled and inspired!

Just an unbelievable Gospel centric perspective on Christ like Love. I was challenged, humbled, and maybe even a little defensive when I listened to Albert’s words and stories. But as a pastor, who is white, I am challenged because I have a huuuuge Responsibility to share and reflect the “whole Gospel” as I invite everyone to have a seat at the table. Let’s get to work and watch God’s kingdom here on earth flourish

Thank you Albert for allowing the Holy Spirit to speak truth through you

Wow

I learned more about being a pastor in this book than I did in four years of college and many years of ministry. It is absolutely eye opening.

Grace filled conversation about racial reconciliation

The most grace-filled conversation about racial reconciliation. I’ve been moved to tears several times. If you are willing to learn and grow - I hope you will read or listen to this book. You will be changed, for good.

Must Read (listen)! Must Engage!

As a follower of Albert Tate throughout the decades, the way he encapsulates the multifaceted issues of todays times is always engaging; however, after hearing this book, in his words, with his experiences, and his evolutionary viewpoint of where we need to go, I’m speechless. As an AA woman, many of his experiences were my own, but as a believer of Christ, his call to action, not just for everyone else, but for me personally, has challenged me beyond belief. His pragmatic approach intertwined with biblical truths, interlaced with practical stories has ensured that I will listen again, take more notes and exercise strategies. I’m humbled.
I’m challenged.
I’m broken, and yet, I am still His.
Wholly broken, seeking to be Wholly Healed. For my children. For my grandchildren. For my future generations.
Albert has reminded me that our broken pieces are the grandest part of His Masterpiece, and it is all For His Glory. Thank you Pastor. For your transparency. For your willingness. For your pursuit of a greater nation.

Deeply Personal, Yet Widely Applicable

"Anything that makes you feel better about loving your neighbor less is probably godless."

Albert Tate has done it again. After following his preaching for just over a decade, I have once again felt challenged, encouraged and renewed by his words. I also felt something else: frustration... but an important, healthy frustration that leads one out of complacency and into action.

For anyone interested in diving into this exemplary piece of writing, I invite you to approach this with openness and readiness to listen and be humble. Come with your mind set on learning, not defending. Come ready to share in Albert Tate's sorrows and victories. Come ready and willing to be changed. Just come.
