Pastor Bryan Loritts dives deep into what it's like to be a person
of color in predominantly white evangelical spaces today and where
we can go from here. God boldly proclaims throughout the book of
Acts that there is no "ethnic home team" when it comes to
Christianity. But the minority experience in America today--and
throughout history--too often tells a different story. As Loritts
writes, "It is impossible to do theology devoid of cultural lenses
and expressions. Like an American unaware of their own accent, most
whites are unaware of the ethnic theological accent they carry."
Insider Outsider bears witness to the true stories that often go
untold--stories that will startle, enlighten, and herald a brighter
way forward for all seeking belonging in the family of God. This
seminal book on race and the church will help Christians discover:
How they can learn the art of listening to stories unlike their own
Identify the problems and pitfalls that keep Sunday morning the
most segregated hour of the week And participate in an active
movement with God toward a holy vision of what Dietrich Bonhoeffer
calls "life together" Drawing on insightful snapshots through
history, eye-opening personal experiences, and biblical exposition,
Loritts awakens both our minds and hearts to the painful reality of
racial divides as well as the hope of forgiveness.
