Synopsis

In Beyond Rhetoric, the late Samuel Hines and Curtiss DeYoung place reconciliation at the very center of God's agenda for humankind. In so doing, they provide both inspiration and guidance for faithful Christian living that embraces a passionate pursuit of reconciliation. ""In this articulate guide for reconciliation, DeYoung and Hines create a wonderful harmony of personal testimony and eternal truth.""   John M. Perkins President, Perkins Foundation for Reconciliation and Development   ""Samuel Hines demonstrated that the gospel of reconciliation is not just an ethical idea but an on-the-ground engagement with the Holy Spirit and one's neighbors. Curtiss DeYoung brings the teachings and stories of Hines into conversation with his own theological and experiential reflections, providing us with this unique gift of wisdom and prophetic calling.""   Mark Lau Branson Homer Goddard Associate Professor of Ministry of the Laity, Fuller Theological Seminary   ""Hines and DeYoung provide individuals and churches alike with clear guidance on how to move from talking reconciliation to actually doing reconciliation as a daily practice and way of life.""   Barbara Williams Skinner President, Skinner Farm Leadership Institute   ""Samuel Hines and Curtiss DeYoung offer a pathway to authentic biblical reconciliation as a radical, God-birthed idea, the essence of Christian discipleship, and a life-transforming journey into the heart of God.""   Chris Rice Co-director, Center for Reconciliation, Duke Divinity School   ""Out of his treasured relationship with Samuel G. Hines, Curtiss DeYoung has produced his colleague's life theme with characteristic grace.""   James Earl Massey Dean Emeritus, Anderson University School of Theology Samuel George Hines, a native of Jamaica, served for several years as a pastor of Third Street Church of God in Washington, DC. Curtiss Paul DeYoung is Professor of Reconciliation Studies at Bethel University in St. Paul, MN.
