description: 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 Scriptureand especially in the letter of 1 Corinthiansto redefine how Christians interact with cultural narratives that are different from their own. Christianswhose 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? 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 how to reflect Jesus' love in a multicultural multiracial body of Christ and to share that love with a hurting world.
