An Evangelical Social Gospel?

Theology

“An Evangelical Social Gospel? is a probing and passionate call to Christians and churches to move beyond our one-sided individual relationship with God to equally include relationship with others and responsibility for the wider community. Suttle, using the writings and life of Rauschenbush and his own disquiet as a pastor, stirs us to discomfort at our self-centered complacency and co-option by culture, and moves us to redefine 'thy Kingdom come on earth as in heaven' as a call to relationships and transformation of our communities. Transformation goes beyond charity to seeking change in the unjust social structures (public education, prisons, etc). An exciting, challenging, biblically based read that will change your faith, thinking, and action.”

Last Light Ascending

Fiction

“A suspenseful thrill-ride, Last Light Ascending is a compelling tale that grips readers from its earliest pages. With beautifully, richly drawn characters, the text immerses readers in a dystopian world—in which hope dares to persist against seemingly insurmountable odds.”
