“There is not a more theologically sound, empirically informed, well-reasoned, or rational voice addressing the complexities of race, class, and culture in America today than that of Dr. George Yancey. In Beyond Racial Division, he navigates nuance and effectively challenges readers to get beyond rhetoric to results in their engagement of diverse others. As did Christ with arms outstretched, Yancey herein seeks to unite motivations and to hold Christ-followers in tension so that we might walk a more productive path for the sake of the gospel, and in so doing lead others away from painful polarization, beyond the crippling distinctions of this world that otherwise divide.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Consuming Jesus sounds the death knell for a paradigm of church growth driven by the homogeneous unit principle and measured in success by numbers, dollars, and buildings. Metzger writes with personal passion and professional expertise, providing a wealth of insight for practitioners addressing the question If the kingdom of heaven is not segregated, why on earth is the church? His work should be read by everyone desiring to restore the local church to a place of compassionate influence within the community.”
Theology
“God's New Humanity is a welcome, significant addition to the growing body of literature boldly proclaiming the biblical mandate for the multiethnic church. With the mind of a theologian, the heart of a pastor, and the insight of a practitioner, David Stevens effectively challenges systemic segregation and points the way to the coming integration of the local church for the sake of the Gospel.”

“For too long the American church has undermined the credibility of its witness by expressing good news for some but not all in and through local churches otherwise segregated by color, class, and culture. Indeed, it's long past time for Christ-followers to express a gospel of peace and hope for all people, not just some people, in more than words. In Hope Ain't a Hustle, my good friend Irwyn Ince provides both the biblical why and how for doing so as well as outcomes we can anticipate by taking intentional steps, as individuals and collectively, toward such ends.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“The arc of the biblical narrative bends toward reconciliation . . . not only of individuals to their Creator through faith in Jesus Christ but to one another, then, beyond the distinctions of this world otherwise divide. Through their individual stories, collective experience, research, and practice, Josh and Hazen herein provide a constructive plan and hopeful path forward for all those interested in getting beyond accusatory rhetoric to actionable results, for the sake of the gospel and the glory of God, on earth as it is in heaven.”

“Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, author of Revolution of Values “Justice is not peripheral but intrinsic to the gospel, and today it’s critical to its advance. Indeed, an increasingly diverse society no longer finds credible a message of God’s love for all people as proclaimed from segregated pulpits and pews that perpetuate racialized fatigue, harm, and trauma. In Living Undivided, Chuck and Troy do more than opine the ‘why we should’ of Christian unity. They share experientially forged, proven, and practical ‘what to do and how to do it’ insights that will equip and challenge you to walk, work, and worship God together as one with others, beyond the distinctions that otherwise divide this world. More than a good read, it’s a great game plan.”

Discipleship & Christian Education
“There is no higher calling upon an individual believer, or more accurate measure of his or her spiritual maturity, than the practice of reproducing Christlike faith in the life of another. In Mentor for Life, Natasha thinks deeply, writes passionately, and challenges practically with the goal of helping you pursue and fulfill the Great Commission one life at a time.”

“Dr. David Anderson and his staff have put together a wonderful resource addressing growing interest in the multiethnic church, and the need for practical tools to bring it about. The men and women contributing to this work are not mere philosophers; they are competent practitioners who have not only lived the dream, but can help you build a healthy multiethnic church through their collective voice and experiential wisdom.”

With each page, Fazal invites readers to confront life's necessary endings and embrace a fresh canvas for the future—one painted with beauty, joy, purpose, and possibilities. This book provides for a transformative journey that will enrich your life, spark new relationships, and deepen your experience with Jesus.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“Through the years, Angie Ward has been an inquisitive, thoughtful, and insightful writer, providing leaders with proven, practical understanding. In Uncharted Leadership, Angie again delivers with case studies from which entire teams will benefit through chapter-by-chapter review and topical discussion. Pastors who wish to lead churches out of stagnation or the management of decline need to leave behind twentieth-century metrics and position themselves today with tomorrow in mind. If that’s your need or desire, this book can help.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“White Awake is at once personal, practical, and provocative. Well conceived, researched, and written, this timely book provides a detailed consideration of cultural identity and its formation from which everyone can benefit—particularly those of us who are white and willing to engage the topic not only for our own benefit but, more significantly, for the sake of the gospel, as ambassadors of Christ and ministers of reconciliation in an increasingly diverse society. Indeed, it is long past time for us to reflect deeply and responsibly on race, racialization, and reconciliation. With refreshing honesty and only the best of intentions, Daniel has provided us with a means to do just that.”
