Heltzel, whose previous book Jesus and Justice: Evangelicals, Race, and American Politics () investigated the role of race in evangelical politics, has several aims for Resurrection City. First, he wants white Christians, particularly evangelicals, to own up to how European and North American theologies and lived religions have benefited.

In a provocative and insightful reading of the book of Matthew, she shows us how to read the Bible as decolonizing rather than imperialist.
