A Public Faith : How Followers of Christ Should Serve the Common Good  Cover Image Book Book

A Public Faith : How Followers of Christ Should Serve the Common Good / Miroslav Volf.

Volf, Miroslav. (Author).

Summary:

While Volf argues that there is no single way Christian faith relates to culture as a whole, he explores major issues on the frontlines of faith today: 1) In what way does the Christian faith come to malfunction in the contemporary world, and how should we counter these malfunctions? 2) What should a Christian's main concern be when it comes to living well in the world today? and 3) How should we go about realizing a vision for human flourishing in relation to other faiths and under the roof of a single state? --from publisher description
