CRU Speaker Has Stadium of White People Get Up and Lament Their Skin Color

Continuing our series unmasking the wolves in Evangelicalism—from Beth Moore’s pragmatic pandering to Matt Chandler’s woke sermonizing to David Platt’s progressive guilt-trips—we now turn to another purveyor of poisonous theology. At #65 on our list stands Latasha Morrison, the self-styled “bridge-builder” whose Be the Bridge ministry has built a bridge straight from the Gospel of Jesus Christ into the false gospel of Critical Race Theory.

Morrison has ascended the ranks of Big Eva’s darlings under the guise of “racial reconciliation,” but make no mistake, what she is selling is a grievance-centered, racially charged reinterpretation of the gospel that deserves the same condemnation as every other false teaching we’ve covered. How many more names will join this rogues’ gallery before the Church wakes up?

The Rise of a “Bridge-Builder”

Latasha Morrison is widely celebrated as a champion of “racial reconciliation” in the church—a New York Times best-selling author and the founder of the Be the Bridge organization. In 2016, she launched Be the Bridge as a nonprofit to train “ambassadors of racial reconciliation,” and by her own boast it now oversees thousands of subgroups worldwide. Mainstream outlets and even secular institutions have showered her with accolades as a “bridge-builder, reconciler, and advocate for racial justice”.

Christianity Today, The Gospel Coalition, and the usual progressive evangelical platforms, including Matt Chandler, have held her up as an exemplar of how to talk about race. On the surface, it all sounds commendable—who wouldn’t want unity and healing across ethnic lines? But the “bridge” Morrison offers is nothing less than a Trojan horse, carrying the toxic payload of Critical Race Theory (CRT), intersectionality, and perpetual social-justice activism into the heart of the church.
