Inhaltsangabe

Four authors--two white, two black--tackle 37 hot-button questions relating to racial tension in the church. In their answers, they yield the floor to the Bible. The premise on which the four of them operate is that the Bible has always contained the solution to racial tension. Yes, the pages of Scripture--there in black and white all along. This book is designed to help Christians think about, discuss, and navigate sometimes challenging and sensitive questions regarding matters of race. The Bible has the answers and the church as designed by God––along with individual hearts obedient to Him––is the solution. While this book is not perfect, what God has written in His Book is indeed perfect and sufficient for this noble task. The church should be an escape from the sorrow, anger, and strife propagated by the world. Christians may be ethnically diverse, but they should be spiritually uniform. Congregations need to be places of serenity––a taste of paradise comprised of Christians who love, laugh, and assume the best about one another. Can this be found, even in today’s climate? Yes! The authors have seen it with their own eyes. Peace is the power of the gospel (Romans 1:16; Ephesians 2:15)––a phenomenon people on the outside still find to be a mystery. But this warm, loving family atmosphere among the Lord’s people is perhaps His greatest apologetic (John 13:34-35). Let the world see our love.
