WINNER OF THE 2022 ECPA CHRISTIAN BOOK AWARD FOR NEW AUTHOR Healthy relationships across cultures are possible. Dr. Michelle Reyes takes a close look at the concept of cultural accommodation found in Scripture—and especially in the letter of 1 Corinthians—to redefine how Christians interact with cultural narratives that are different from their own. Christians—whose standard of living is oneness in Christ, whose gospel is radically nonexclusive—should be at the frontlines of justice and of cross-cultural unity. But many of us struggle to reach outside of our own cultural bubbles and form real relationships that move beyond stereotypes and lead to understanding, healing, and solidarity across cultural lines. Why is that? Why is it so difficult to reconcile our call to be united in Christ with a celebration of different cultural expressions? What are the reasons for cultural differences and how do they so often lead to stereotyping, appropriation, gentrification, racism, and other forms of injustice? What does the Bible say about human beings as cultural image bearers? How do we reevaluate our awareness of culture identity in a healthy and constructive way? These are just some of the questions that Dr. Reyes explores as she faces the challenges surrounding cross-cultural relationships in America today and her thoughts on the way forward. Spoiler Alert! The way forward does require willingness to change. It requires embracing cultural discomfort. But by engaging with this book, you will be empowered to learn how to become all things to all people—that is: how to reflect Jesus' love in a multicultural, multiracial body of Christ and to share that love with a hurting world.

Have you ever asked yourself what changed when you were "born again?" You look in the mirror and see the same reflection - your body hasn't changed. You find yourself acting the same and yielding to those same old temptations - that didn't seem to change either. So you wonder, Has anything really changed? The correct answer to that question is foundational for receiving from God. If you lack this basic understanding, you'll forever ask yourself doubt-filled questions like: "How could God love somebody like me?" and "How can I possibly expect to receive anything from the Lord? I don't deserve it, I'm not good enough!" Spirit, Soul, and Body will help you eliminate those and other doubt-filled questions that destroy your faith. If you have trouble receiving from God, this is a must-read!

"Besides Jesus, no one has kept me from despair, or taken me deeper into the mysteries of the gospel, than the apostle Paul." —John Piper No one has had a greater impact on the world for eternal good than the apostle Paul—except Jesus himself. For John Piper, this impact is very personal. He does not just admire and trust Paul. He loves him. Piper gives us thirty glimpses into why his heart and mind respond this way. Can a Christian-killer really endure 195 lashes from a heart of love? Can a mystic who thinks he was caught up into heaven be a model of lucid rationality? Can an ethnocentric Jew write the most beautiful call to reconciliation? Can a person who lives with the unceasing anguish of empathy be always rejoicing? Can a man's description of the horrors of human sin be exceeded by his delight in human splendor? Can a man with a backbone of steel be as tender as a nursing mother? If we know this man—if we see what Piper sees—we too will love him. Paul's testimony is a matter of life and death. Piper invites you into his relationship with Paul in the hope that you will know life, forever.

Those who have influence have power. Unfortunately, the majority of the worlds influence comes from forces of negative connotations. In this thought provoking book, we will address some of the things that have made the influence of the modern church weaken. We will also discuss innovative means in which we can take it back. Sometimes between cultures we lose communication. In order to bridge the gap, we must be willing to understand that it takes different methods to reach different people and our cookie cutter is not working. - Terrell Monger Where is the freedom that we speak about so much in the church? It is a shame that before someone can freely discuss salvation we must first claim a denomination. We might as well be a gang and ask, What set do you claim? Didnt Christ die for us all? Then, why are we so separated? - a 16 year old man at church

In the author's ten years living in China, Chinese friends and foreign friends alike have told him that in many ways he is more like a Chinese person than an American. He sees himself as an ""egg,"" which is white on the outside and yellow (Chinese) inside. For cross-cultural ministry, we learn from the apostle Paul: ""I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some"" (1 Cor 9:22). Paul's purpose in becoming all things to all men is so that some may be saved. We can see this displayed in his preaching to the Athenians in Acts 17, how he becomes a local by relating to them through their culture. This book first looks at how we are to imitate Christ's love and humility to effectively love the locals to whom we are ministering. Then the book covers many specific aspects of life abroad and how we can better live like the locals in many areas that some may be saved. Though this book is particularly targeted for those readers who are ministering cross-culturally, it is also a very beneficial book for Christians aiming to be light in their home country. ""It is one thing to know these post-colonial principles as head knowledge, it is another thing to concretely live them out in the mission field. Mr. Laughlin has purged even the last bit of condescending demeanor, and become 'one among us.' As a theological educator who grew up in mainland China, I recommend this book to anyone who's interested in cross-cultural mission."" --Zhiqiu Xu, Associate Professor of Theology, Director of Chinese Seminary Studies, Columbia International University ""While many Christians are aware of the cross-cultural mandate imparted to us by our Savior, few are aware of the complexities involved in the process. Laughlin's book provides practical insights to Christians from all walks of life who sense a calling to crossing cultural and linguistic boundaries for the sake of the Kingdom."" --J. Scott Bridger, Author; Associate Professor of Global Studies & World Religions, Criswell College ""In Becoming Native to Win the Natives, [Laughlin's] honest words offer practical help for missionaries in any context. Rather than settle for mere principles, he gives perspective that will shape a missionary's head, heart, and hands. This is one of the first books I'll recommend to people wanting to work cross-culturally."" --Jackson Wu, Author, One Gospel for All Nations and Saving God's Face ""As one who lives cross-culturally for the sake of the Gospel, I am deeply appreciative of Tabor's book and it's contribution to the Great Commission. This book is a great primer for anyone crossing cultures."" --Dirk Canyon, Nineteen years in China reaching Tibetan Buddhists Tabor Laughlin has been living in China for ten years. He's the leader of a small missions organization there, overseeing about twenty workers in three cities. He got his bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering from Oklahoma State University, and his MDiv in Islamic Studies from Southern Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. He blogs occasionally on both China Source and Desiring God. He lives with his wife and daughter in China.
