Is Christianity the White Man's Religion?

How the Bible Is Good News for People of Color

By: Antipas L. Harris

Narrated by: Bill Andrew Quinn

As our society increases in ethnic and religious diversity, millennials and the next generation of emerging adults harbor suspicions about traditional Christianity. Many young adults have rejected the Christian faith based on what they've seen in churches, the media, and politics. For them, Christianity looks a lot like a "White man's religion".

Antipas L. Harris, a theologian and community activist, believes that biblical Christianity is more affirmative of cultural diversity than many realize. In this sweeping social, theological, and historical examination of Christianity, Harris responds to a list of hot topics from young Americans who struggle with the perception that Christianity is detached from matters of justice, identity, and culture. He also looks at the ways in which American evangelicalism may have incubated the race problem.

Is Christianity the White Man's Religion? affirms that ethnic diversity has played a powerful role in the formation of the Old and New Testaments and that the Bible is a book of justice, promoting equality for all people. Contrary to popular Eurocentric conceptions, biblical Christianity is not just for White Westerners. It's good news for all of us.

Insightful and reinvigorating book!

I am compelled to review “Is Christianity the White Man’s Religion?,” because I am a Christian who has been bewildered by the national Evangelical narrative. I wanted to read the book because I honestly had the question in my mind that is expressed in the title. I felt Mr. Harris gave me strong support that recovers my faith as an international faith. As stated in the last chapter, “God so loved the World that he gave his one and only Son…” I have hope in my Christian faith again that trumps any co-opting by a particular race.

Clear understanding of my misunderstanding

This material must be elevated as a must read of every age and culture. Also, a mandatory part of all biblical studies and school systems across the world in all languages. Blessings on you ALH🙏🏾
