The Offensive Church

Breaking the Cycle of Ethnic Disunity

By: Bryan C. Loritts

Narrated by: Bryan C. Loritts

Crises around race have put the church in a defensive posture, always reacting to racial conflicts in society. But Jesus wants more. He wants Christians to play offense by discipling people into a new humanity, where we push beyond mere diversity and into a biblical vision for ethnic unity.

Bryan Loritts calls Christians to proactively and intentionally live out the embodied reality of a people at one with one another. We play offense by practicing a robust gospel, preparing reliable leadership, and providing relational environments so that the church becomes the aroma of Christ to our culture and gains ground against the demonic foothold of racism in all its forms.

Excellent

What an incredibly amazing read. Pastor Lorritts has an awesomely gifted way to express what God has given him. This book is a true love letter to the body of Christ on ways of living out our Christian faith together in unity. This is what comes to my mind, “Make every effort to keep the oneness of the Spirit in the bond of peace [each individual working together to make the whole successful]. There is one body [of believers] and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when called [to salvation]— one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of us all who is [sovereign] over all and [working] through all and [living] in all.” Ephesians‬ ‭4‬:‭3‬-‭6‬ ‭AMP.

What does living in unity look like in your surroundings? Within your scope of influence are you an active agent in the area of ethnic unity or do you sit idly by on the sidelines? Do you truly believe all humankind has the imago dei of God or certain groups are held in higher esteem?

This is an excellent book. I highly recommend reading it.
