30 Day Book Challenge, Day 16: What is a book that you would recommend to an ignorant/closed-minded/racist person?

Finally, a question that is EASY to answer! I would highly recommend Same Kind of Different as Me, by Ron Hall and Denver Moore. But I would not only recommend it to someone who struggles with racism, I would recommend it to anyone!

Same Kind of Different as Me is two memoirs woven into one. It is the story of the mingling of two starkly different lives, and the journey that each person made towards understanding the other. It is a book that shows how God can use the most ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things.

In Same Kind of Different as Me you will meet Denver: the poor, uneducated grandson of a slave; and Ron: the wealthy, highly educated, international art dealer. You will learn how each acquired their respective prejudices, how each came to faith in Jesus, and how each learned to love and trust someone completely different than himself.

In subtle and not-so-subtle ways I found myself relating to each of the authors. Same Kind of Different as Me is beautiful, inspirational, and challenging all at the same time. This is a book you do not want to miss!
