Perkins is an internationally known author, speaker, and teacher on issues of racial reconciliation and Christian community development.

Perkins is the author of nine books and has written numerous chapters in other books.

In 2004, he partnered with Seattle Pacific University to launch the campus-based John Perkins Center for Reconciliation, Leadership Training and Community Development. The center is a first-of-its-kind partnership and what Perkins describes as "the fulfillment of a lifelong dream."
