Aprašymas

In an era of tribalism, polarization, and racial division there are many pitfalls to social issues. How can discerning Christians avoid both highly partisan, public discourse and apathetic withdrawal? Scripture may not provide direct answers on public policy, but the wisdom of the Bible provides insight on modern day issues. Christians are to be involved without being partisan and self-interested-- they are to seek the common good. The church is to be a microcosm of the Beloved Community within a fallen world. The Jesus of Jericho calls Christians to a path of ethical pragmatism as seen in the parable of the Good Samaritan, and articulated in the African American Christian tradition. The chapters contain principles on living as dual citizens of heaven and earth.
