<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><em>When Heaven and Earth Collide</em> is an investigation into what went wrong in the American South in regard to race and religion--and how things can be and are being made right. Why, in a land filled with Christian churches, was there such racial oppression and division? Why didn't white evangelicals do more to bring racial reconciliation to the South during the 19th and 20th centuries? These questions are asked and answered through an exploration of history, politics, economics, philosophy, and social and theological studies that uncovers the hidden impetus behind racism and demonstrates how we can still make many of the same errors today--just perhaps in different ways. The investigation finally leads us in hopeful directions involving how to live out the better way of Jesus with an eye on heaven in a world still burdened and broken under the sins of the past.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>This is a necessary book by a man steeped in the white evangelical tradition but willing to expose what went wrong there. It would be easy for Christians in a different tradition to call down shame on those white Southerners for their failures, but every tradition has its own failures that need this kind of intense scrutiny so they don't continue into the future. -- <b>Bill Tammeus</b>, <em>Bill's Faith Matters Blog</em><br>
