The Gospel Beyond the Grave

Theology

“Dr. Lewis Brogdon is a profound thought leader and New Testament scholar whose racial reconciliation work is critical for the days ahead. He deeply interrogates our understandings of idolatry and salvation to make the case for an eschatological reckoning with the theological sin of racism within American Christianity. This innovative book is the culmination of decades worth of research, personal experience, and deep reflection at the intersection of his personal and professional journey. His re-imagining of purgatory through a Black theology lens offers hope and prophetic insight to the personal and communal accountability required from those who bear the [salvific] name of Christ.”
