To Right Every Wrong

History & Biography

“Dave Andrews, in his new book To Right Every Wrong, describes a lifelong call to the role of the prophet. I was bothered by Dave’s self-identification as a prophet. Calling oneself a prophet smacks of . . . arrogance. But by the end of the book I thought Dave had proved his case through his stories about prophetic action and self-reflection. Dave identifies as an Anabaptist that claims, ‘Jesus is the centre of our faith, Community is the centre of our life, and Reconciliation is the centre of our work.’ Dave’s life story demonstrates his commitment to these three faith statements. Being an Anabaptist puts Dave on the margins of the church and society where prophets often thrive.”
