Interracial Christian couples challenge their families and churches to rethink previously held concepts about race relations in America. While God has joined together an increasing number of interracial marriages, fear of race mixing has driven many Christian families and churches apart. This social and spiritual distance creates a void filled with mistrust and unbiblical stereotypes about interracial marriage and multiracial children.

This groundbreaking work weaves together the personal and professional perspectives of racially diverse Christian leaders as they confront this emotionally charged issue. This multi-disciplinary handbook serves a twofold purpose:

1. to affirm healthy interracial dating, mating, and parenting for family members, and
2. to create a reference textbook to equip professionals with biblical insights and practical tools for ministering to multiracial families.

Written from a biblical perspective by authors of various racial identities and multiracial backgrounds, Just Don’t Marry One includes challenging questions that can be used for personal reflection and for small-group discussion.
