Writing with passion and great pastoral sensitivity, Jack Reese urges Christians to live together peaceably while dealing with their differences in ways that honor Christ and reflect the gospel. Here is powerful and soothing gospel medicine for fragmented churches.
“What to do about differences within the Body of Christ? Jack Reese shows us how to love and serve Jesus and, at the same time, faithfully love one another. In The Body Broken, Reese restores my faith that those who gather at the Lord's Table can be one.”
—William Willimon, author of Sunday Dinner: The Lord’s Supper and the Christian Life and Remember Who You Are: Baptism, A Model for Christian Life
“Every now and then a book comes along that demands our attention because of its compelling relevancy. This is such a book. With language that is tender, confessional, and candid, Reese examines the causes of our fragmentation and our inability to have meaningful dialogue. Christians who care about the condition of the church will want the guidance and encouragement found in this warm and personal book.
—Joy McMillon, Associate Editor, The Christian Chronicle
