A renowned preacher, professor, and cultural anthropologist unveils the pervasive cancer of woke theology that has infiltrated seminaries and poses a significant threat to the evangelical church. In addition, he implores all Christian congregations to resist the allure of critical theory and adhere to the path of an intimate individual relationship with God.

The death of George Floyd at the hands of police in the summer of 2020 sent shockwaves across the nation. As riots erupted in American cities, Christians from the pulpit and on social media expressed their unwavering support for the notion that "black lives matter" and that racial justice is a gospel imperative. However, what if there is a deeper and more sinister aspect to the social justice movement that many Christians are unaware of? Even worse, what if they have unwittingly been led to propagate ideas that directly contradict the Kingdom of God?

In this compelling book, Voddie Baucham, a preacher, professor, and cultural apologist, delves into the underlying worldview behind the social justice movement and Critical Race Theory. He exposes how these ideologies have already infiltrated certain seminaries, resulting in internal denominational conflicts, canceled careers, and lost livelihoods. Similar to a fault line, they pose a significant threat to American culture in general and the evangelical church in particular. Whether you are a layperson who has found yourself in a bewildering new world and seeks guidance on how to engage sensitively and effectively in conversations about race or a pastor grappling with a polarized congregation, this book provides the clarity and understanding needed to either stand your ground or reclaim it.
