This book provides a comprehensive biblical and theological survey
of the people of God in the Old and New Testaments, offering
insights for today's transformed and ethnically diverse church.
Jarvis Williams explains that God's people have always been
intended to be a diverse community. From Genesis to Revelation, God
has intended to restore humanity's vertical relationship with God,
humanity's horizontal relationship with one another, and the entire
creation through Jesus. Through Jesus, both Jew and gentile are
reconciled to God and together make up a transformed people.
Williams then applies his biblical and theological analysis to
selected aspects of the current conversation about race, racism,
and ethnicity, explaining what it means to be the church in today's
multiethnic context. He argues that the church should demonstrate
redemptive kingdom diversity, for it has been transformed into a
new community that is filled with many diverse ethnic communities.
