Today on The Sword and The Trowel, Tom Ascol and Graham Gunden welcome Pastor David Schrock back to the show to discuss his newest book - Dividing The Faithful: How a Little Book on Race Fractured a Movement Founded on Grace. David's book serves as a chapter by chapter analysis of “Divided by Faith" and today on the show, he shares a little bit of the history behind writing it and the need to address these dangerous ideologies permeating the evangelical church today. Whether you have read or recommend Divided by Faith or not, Dividing the Faithful will help you discern the underlying categories that so often dominate evangelical discussions on race.
