Almighty Matters

“Almighty Matters is a lively, controversial, reading of the Bible as the record of a unified project to institute 'God's politics' on earth, from the failure of ancient Israelites to establish a powerful and enduring kingdom in the Promised Land to the success of Jesus in starting a universal religious movement that eventually replaced the Roman Empire. . . . His experience and expertise in international politics invest his interpretive speculations with insight and authority.”

Theology

“Sam Gould turns ‘back to the future’ by offering a progressive interpretation of biblical texts and traditional church teachings that contemporary Christians can embrace as rational, ethical, and humanist. He writes for those who wish to be Christian without forfeiting their critical intelligence or liberal morality. While Gould asserts that Jesus reveals what a fully evolved human life can be, he also calls for ecumenical openness to those of other religious faiths.”
