Dear Friend:
I am Dr. A. Charles Ware, founder of Grace Relations. I am passionately concerned about the state of our society and our churches regarding race relations. Over the years, God has taught me much about the Scriptures and their application to conversations of race, ethnicity, and culture.
My passion for racial reconciliation by applying the biblical principle of grace led me to develop our DREAM curriculum and establish Grace Relations. This network exists to equip pastors and other Christian workers to engage in meaningful conversation and collaboration to bridge racial, ethnic, and cultural divides. I believe God is using my decades of experience, research, and study as an urban pastor, counselor, and educator to bring a message of grace to the Christian community.
Because of Him,
Dr. A. Charles Ware

“I want to personally thank you for Grace Relations. I am proud of our team for taking these issues to our membership base, and shining a light on the topic of race and Grace relations. I truly enjoyed your perspective, your transparency, and your outward message of 'LOVE.' It seems so simple, yet it is very needed right now.”
