About

When it comes to the ethnic divisions in our world, we speak often of seeking racial reconciliation. But at no point have all the different ethnicities on Earth been reconciled. Animosity, distrust, and hostility among people from various ethnicities have always existed in American history. Even in the church, we have often built walls-ethnic segregation, classism, sexism, and theological tribes-to divide God's people from each other.


But it shouldn't be this way. God's people are the only people on earth who have experienced true reconciliation. Who better to enter into the ethnic tensions of our day with the hope of Jesus?


In Intensional, pastor D. A. Horton steps into the tension to offer vision and practical guidance for Christians longing to embrace our Kingdom ethnicity, combating the hatred in our culture with the hope of Jesus Christ.

Reviews

"D. A. Horton is one of the great young minds in the American church. Intensional is theologically rich, incredibly practical, and inspiriting."
Dr. Derwin L. Gray, lead pastor at Transformation Church, author of The High Definition Le
"Horton has blessed Christ followers with a needed exhortation, framed in biblical language and categories. Perhaps this will give the saints pause in the world of needless jabs and barbs on social media. Chapter 7 is especially helpful with its categories and questions. Prayerfully, this book will lead to us ramping down the rhetoric and ramping up the thinking! Horton has served the body of Christ-yea, the Christ that prayed that His followers would be united."
Kevin L. Smith, executive director of the Baptist Convention of Maryland/Delaware
"D. A. Horton is the rare Christian leader whose superior intelligence and eloquence are matched and even exceeded by his exemplary Christian character. Those qualities come through in this magnificent little book grounding ethnicity in the imago dei and urging the Christian community toward ethnic conciliation. Even-and especially-for the reader who might disagree with certain aspects of Horton's treatment of this controversial topic, Intensional offers much food for thought. Highly recommended."
Bruce Riley Ashford, author of Letters to an American Christian
