The Fire is Lit, Here Comes the Smoke!

This is a story about a movement. A real life story of how a white and black pastor from different points of view see the world as it is and as it could be. The authors face many of the great questions that are dividing our country and our churches in a way not seen since the Civil War. This book strives to show the modern church what is possible when people just talk and listen. From the Kaepernick Controversy to sexual assault in the church, The Bishop Brothers bring two points of view to some of the most difficult questions facing the church and our society today. To read this book, you need to be comfortable being uncomfortable!

Our Country is polarized by labels and narratives. If you understand history, and what and who we are as Nation, the reaction and fall out would not have surprised you.  -Bishop Aaron Williams

.  I personally have never felt slighted or offended when people at sporting events wouldn’t stand for the pledge of allegiance or the national anthem. This is why I joined the Navy, so that Americans could express themselves in any way they see fit. The beauty of our country is you don’t have to swear allegiance, that is your freedom as a citizen of this country, and I would give my life so that a person doesn’t have to stand.  -Bishop John Gee
