"As one who has stepped across the racial boundary in the church, Dr. Hampton speaks a loving, timely, and poignant word to the Church and to those who search for faith, courage, and hope in times of challenge and celebration. His sermons grow out of a deep personal faith and significant experiences in worship, pastoral care, and service in a large, predominantly white congregation. He is a model for effective multi-cultural ministry, and his book offers encouragement to others who follow his example."

-Rev. Victor H. Nixon, Pastor Emeritus
