Winner of the 2012 Outreach Cross-Cultural Ministry Resource of the Year Genocide. Terrorism. Hate crimes. In a world where racism is far from dead; is unity amidst diversities even remotely possible? Sharing from his own experiences growing up in the segregated South; pastor John Piper thoughtfully exposes the unremitting problem of racism. Instead of turning finally to organizations; education; famous personalities; or government programs to address racial strife; Piper reveals the definitive source of hope—teaching how the good news about Jesus Christ actively undermines the sins that feed racial strife; and leads to a many-colored and many-cultured kingdom of God. Learn to pursue ethnic harmony from a biblical perspective; and to relate to real people different from yourself; as you take part in the bloodline of Jesus that is comprised of “every tongue; tribe; and nation.â€

A Magnificent and Moving WorkBy Len LamensdorfThis book is a 10 on a scale of 1 to 5. It is physically beautiful with dozens of outstanding drawings; photographs; maps and charts all bound together on the highest quality paper and binding. But that is only the beginning:Dr. Isbouts is a fine scholar and a highly gifted writer; who tells his story with amazing grace and clarity. I don't know enough superlatives to describe the outstanding quality of this book; in a word; it's a masterpiece.Len LamensdorfWestlake Village; California3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Excellant BookBy DCAVFBGreat elements of history thrown into this book. Picked it up for a class I'm taking; but plan to hold onto this one for a long time. I'm not extremely religious; but I do find historically interesting. Great as a gift for anyone who strongly appreciates history/christianity. It's full of wonderful illustrations; and pieces of art.
