Uncommon Unity: Wisdom for the Church in an Age of DivisionOur world is facing increasing hostilities. Political and cultural differences rage, even among people who otherwise show goodwill. And the church is no stranger to extreme polarization, theological backbiting, and political squabbling. Jesuss prayer in John 17that the church be one as he and the Father are oneseems increasingly unattainable. But what if Scripture actually provides the key for thinking about unity in diversity? In Uncommon Unity:

Our world is facing increasing hostilities. Political and cultural differences rage, even among people who otherwise show goodwill. And the church is no stranger to extreme polarization, theological backbiting, and political squabbling. Jesus’s prayer in John 17—that the church be one as he and the Father are one—seems increasingly unattainable. But what if Scripture actually provides the key for thinking about unity in diversity? In Uncommon Unity: Wisdom for the Church in an Age of Division, Richard Lints explores the nature of diversity and how Christians can think more clearly about unity in an increasingly polarized age. Drawing on theological, historical, and sociological resources, Lints exposes problems with the inclusion narrative of democracy and shows a better way forward for fostering unity in the midst of extreme diversity. If we are to think rightly about diversity, wisdom is required for the church in our late modern world. Through wisdom, Christians can display real unity in diversity and bear witness of the God who made them for himself as diverse members of his one body. Readers of Uncommon Unity will be heartened that Scripture and Christian tradition provide an antidote to division.

______________

Richard Lints is senior consulting theologian, Redeemer City to City, New York City. He was formerly provost and Andrew Mutch Distinguished Professor of Theology at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in South Hamilton, Massachusetts. He is the author of Progressive and Conservative Religious Ideologies, Identity and Idolatry, and The Fabric of Theology.

______________

‘Confident that Christ’s kingdom out-narrates the distorted narratives of our age, Lints nevertheless recognizes that how we envision, tell and practice that story is conditioned by other stories we often just assume. Identifying and analyzing these different takes on unity and diversity for many years, he at last shares the fruit of his labors! Diving beneath the tiresome and polarizing rhetoric of the culture wars, this book gives us deeply informed, well-considered and timely insights that we desperately need.’ Michael Horton, Professor of Theology and Apologetics, Westminster Seminary California

Daily tasks in a wonderfully sacred light!
Wow! This is a wonderful way to remember that every moment is holy and should be honored. Well written! The illustrations are so good. I only wish there were twenty volumes instead of just 3!

An aid to the Bible to walk out Gods will for your life.
What a great book and addition to the volume series. When I first received my first volume some 2 years ago from my daughter and her pastor husband I thought it would just be another good self help book. Little did I know how God would use this series in every aspect, action and event of my life and how every moment and thought is a given chance by God to honor, worship and bring praise to the glory of His grace. Other than the Bible, I recommend above all other books to make it the guide and manual of how you walk out the Christian life in light of “Every Moment being Holy.”

Getting the kindle version of this book was such a good choice! It’s nice to have it on my phone so that I can take screenshots and share prayers with friends. This collection is so wonderful and I’m really thankful that the rabbit room continues to produce more volumes.

Great to give as gifts
While I have enjoyed this book myself I think it's most valuable as a gift. I keep several on hand and give them out to friends when we meet up and it goes over really well.
