...And that foreword ends with an endorsement of Eric Mason as a "transcendent voice," "above the fray," who doesn't "unnecessarily divide or confuse" like other Christians speaking on race.
"I look forward to sitting at his feet to listen and learn."
"I look forward to sitting at his feet to listen and learn."
Quick stroll through memory lane. Dr. Mason is certainly not "above the fray," as he is given to fits of rage from the pulpit (watch to the end):

Not confusing or divisive?

The "whiteness has caused blindness of heart" rant was certainly a confusing, divisive fit of rage.
And Dr. Mason has a particular predilection to smear black conservatives with truly below-the-belt attacks. The "Angloid on the inside" sermon happened BEFORE Woke Church came out! (Timestamp 12:19)
Just this year, Dr. Mason had to apologize for a "house slave" routine that he performed from the pulpit to mock black conservatives. He did not apologize for calling them "suckers in the Spirit."

It's been 3 years since that book came out. Instead of honestly reflecting on the endorsement + what's come since, JLD tries to dodge any connection to the movement that, if you read the whole foreword, he was hitching his wagon to. Reputation management instead of shepherding.
