"In Know Your Place, Phillips has done the hard work of confronting
his own demons, wresting them of their power by telling hard
truths. His courageous story invites those of us who bear the name
Southern white evangelicals to do the same, to come face to face
with the ugliness of our shared history and to be brave enough to
do something about it. A powerful, convicting read perfect for
church and classroom study."
--Mandy McMichael, associate director and J. David Slover Assistant
Professor of Ministry Guidance, Baylor University
"I could not stop reading! Phillips's impressive scholarship,
gripping life experiences, and piercing reflections glued me to the
book! His spellbinding storytelling left me feeling, 'he's one of
us, ' only smarter, better read, more honest--just the wise guide
needed to lead us through our own story into a shared future of
hope. Neither an unloving critic, nor uncritical lover, Phillips
leads us to a wholesome celebration of our place with all in the
body of Christ."
--J. Randall O'Brien, former provost of Baylor University,
president emeritus of Carson-Newman University, and author of Set
Free by Forgiveness: The Way to Peace and Healing
