Summary
"Here is a book that will help Christians take positive steps to overcome political corruption and social injustice. While the author stresses the importance of individual conversation, he also argues that a person is faithful to God as he or she enters into the give-and-take of political life for the sake of justice. After describing what can and cannot be accomplished by political action in terms of God's creation and will for persons, the author suggests specific forms of political involvement in the local community. Thus, the book will be useful as a study resource and action guide for concerned Christians." - Publisher
