This book is a must read for any social-justice-y christian who has written off working class whites as part of the problem. This book just rocked my world. After two years working as a pastor in a small rural town in Kansas, it instantly brought numerous situations, issues and people into focus. At the very least, every Mennonite pastor coming out of seminary needs to read this book.

I'm still processing my thoughts on this book. I admire Sample's brazen honesty in pointing out classism within progressive and liberal circles but found his characterization of working class people perhaps a bit too simplistic. But, I'm trying to stay open to what this book has to teach me.
