By Tony Evans

Tony Evans has been an influential voice for the gospel in the United States for decades. When he writes on an issue, it will be biblically rooted and biblically balanced. That is true of this book on racism.

The book is divided into three parts. First, he establishes a biblical overview of unity and oneness. In the second part he takes an extensive look at the black church in America. And finally in part three he examines the kingdom approach to the church, to biblical justice, and to social outreach.

In that second section, on the black church, he has interesting chapters on the myth of black inferiority, the black presence in the Bible, the black church’s link with Africa, the uniqueness of the black church, the role of a black preacher, black power and black theology, and the rise of black evangelicalism.

This is a thorough, insightful, and biblical approach to racism in America.
