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." - Publisher. 0aReconciliationxReligious aspectsxChristianity.945656 0aRace discriminationxReligious aspectsxChristianity.945657 0aChurch and minorities.945658  a7bcbccorignewd1eecipf20gy-gencatlg  2lcccBOOKhBT 738.27i.P57 2011  c12891d12891  00102lcc40708BooksaAUA.1bAUA.1cGSd2014-07-21eBought by JTLg11.50hAUA015813l2oBT 738.27 .P57 2011pAUA015813r2023-05-17 00:00:00s2023-05-15v11.50w2014-07-21yBOOK
