Walking in Unity

In the early years of their friendship, Monique and Krista faced what felt like insurmountable cultural rifts and language barriers in their discussions about race and racism. But instead of retreating permanently into avoidant silence or escalating until they burned down the friendship, they learned to face those difficult conversations--because as children of God, they saw each other as worth it.

Walking in Unity is about bringing Christ-centered answers to issues of race and racism. Drawing a clear distinction between the secular culture's instructions for agreement and Scripture's call for unity, authors Moniqe Duson and Krista Bontrager help you explore what the Bible really says about ethnic harmony and how Christians ultimately find their common identity in Christ.

In this encouraging and accessible guide, you will explore the tough issues that have made their way from the larger culture into the pews of local unsuspecting churches--reparations, interethnic families, the multicultural church, and systemic racism--all while keeping Christ at the center. You will also be equipped with insights and guidelines for engaging in constructive dialogue with others.

As you engage this Christ-centered model for ethnic unity, you will discover more freedom and joy in your cross-cultural friendships than you ever thought possible.
