Shane had the privilege of meeting his long-time hero: civil rights leader, and minister, John Perkins. Little did he know that we would form a friendship and John would become a mentor. Over a series of years they had numerous conversations as Shane wanted to know from John what leading a life faithful to Jesus Christ actually looks like.

What followed was a series of vulnerable and heartfelt conversations between John and Shane and their reflections on those conversations. John's words and advice are distilled into nine axioms for peacemaking and transformation.

Industry Reviews

“I am so grateful for the life and witness of John Perkins. . . . Thankfully, Shane has done an excellent job taking us to the front porch to sit and receive invaluable stories and wisdom from a wise, Jesus-shaped elder of the church. Go and Do is gripping and inspiring, and every page invites us deeper into a life of faithful justice, healing, and transformation, which is exactly what we need right now.”
—Drew G. I. Hart, author of Who Will Be a Witness?

“Being a peacemaker is hard work. Especially in the midst of the culture wars. Is there an intersection between nonviolence and our polarized, othering, and fragmented society? Yes! John Perkins and Shane Blackshear are paving a critical path forward for us—how do we enact the way of Jesus in a world marked by the way of the beast? By God’s grace, this book will impact you the way it did me.”
—A. J. Swoboda, author of After Doubt

“We have much to learn about peacemaking from the life and ministry of John M. Perkins. In our relationally broken world, Perkins models how to bridge the divide and love the people we least like, even hate, the way Jesus did. Go and Do will no doubt guide Christian leaders practically to promote the peace of Jesus in their local communities.”
—Michelle Ami Reyes, author of Becoming All Things

“With a robust understanding of the complexities of peacemaking, Shane Blackshear and John Perkins pastorally point us to the alternative way of Jesus by drawing on the richness of Scripture. Shane and John understand that peacemaking is messy and difficult, but readers’ hearts and minds will be nourished and infused with God’s creative and healing imagination for the world. We need this book more than ever.”
—Tara Beth Leach, author of Radiant Church
