Oneness Embraced: A Kingdom Race Theology for Reconciliation, Unity, and Justice (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780802424723)

Oneness is hard to achieve. Let the kingdom unity of Scripture point the way.

Today's world is torn apart. Tension is everywhere. Brother is pitted against brother, sister against sister, citizen against citizen, even Christian against Christian. It's so hard to find agreement--much less real harmony--in our polarized society. Can there be a way forward?

Tony Evans knows how elusive unity can be. As a black man who's also a leader in white evangelicalism, he understands how hard it can be to bring these worlds together. Yet he's convinced that the gospel provides a way for Christians to find oneness despite the things that divide us. In the Word of God, we find a kingdom-based approach to matters of history, culture, the church, and social justice. In this book, you'll get:

• A Biblical Look at Oneness
• A Historical View of the Black Church
• A Kingdom Vision for Societal Impact

Although oneness is hard to achieve, the Christian must never stop striving. It's a kingdom imperative. As Tony reminds us, "Glorifying God is our ultimate goal. Oneness exists to enable us to reach our goal."
