John Turner: "The Wars of the Lord is a landmark history of 17th-century New England... If readers need encouragement to plunge into this capacious history, they should know that Tuininga combines sharp analysis with a readable and even entertaining narrative."

Like the Good Samaritan, we are responsible for the legacy and impact of racism, even if we are not guilty of it.

Any theology that accommodates injustice (through denial, minimization, or support) is more secular than sacred. The great mark of this sinful age has always been to ask “am I my brothers keeper?” Christ alone gives us the grace to say with our lives “I am my brothers keeper.”

The Christian life is rooted in union with Christ. This understanding must serve as a paradigm for Christian ethics. To imitate Christ is the foundation of a biblical understanding of the Christian life. @MJTuininga  goo.gl/ezvnTZ
