Subversive Witness: Scripture’s Call to Leverage Privilege (Zondervan, 2021)

WHO: Dominique Dubois Gilliard, director of Racial Righteousness and Reconciliation for the Evangelical Covenant Church..

HE SAYS: “We have become well adjusted to things to which our faith calls us to be diametrically opposed.”

THE BIG IDEA: This book provides a blueprint for modern believers who desire to embody Scripture’s subversive call to leverage, and at times forsake, privilege.

THE PROGRESSION: In nine chapters the author highlights biblical examples of privilege people who understood the call to steward privilege and to further the kingdom and sacrificially love their neighbors.

“While Jesus never promises bearing our cross daily will result in a happy ending, he does guarantee it is always worth it.”

Keeping the gospel central is what keeps a church healthy and growing, not extravagant AVL productions.

It Takes Everyone

When every member shares the work, the whole body is better for it.
