Beyond Reconciliation: Experiencing Koinonia across the Racial Divide - Beyond Reconciliation

The racial divide running through America involves ethnic, cultural, historical, and political differences. That divide also affects the Church in America, which remains 93 percent monocultural. Although multi-ethnic congregations represent a growing trend, they face the challenges of racial, cultural, and political tensions that could undermine their unity. Congregations that successfully navigate these challenges carry the potential to help heal the nation's racial divisions.Beyond Reconciliation can help members of multi-racial churches move beyond mere reconciliation to experience authentic biblical fellowship, or koinonia. This book honestly examines the differences that divide us and points the way to bridges of understanding. Above all, it boldly issues the call to interracial koinonia.Beyond Reconciliation is the curriculum companion to the author's book Journey to Koinonia: An Interracial Small Group Experience, which outlines a six-week, small group encounter designed to help believers experience biblical fellowship across the racial divide.
