SPCK God & Government Paperback Book

What, according to Christian thought, is the proper function of government? That is the key question this lively volume aims to address. It does not tell readers what to do, still less whom to vote for. Rather, it seeks to equip us to consider what we should be attempting to achieve in our roles as political Christians, that is, Christians employed, engaged or simply interested in politics. The writers, all highly respected theological thinkers, are Philip Booth, Professor of Insurance and Risk Management at Cass Business School Andrew Bradstock, Professor of Theology and Public Issues at the University of Otago Jonathan Chaplin, Director of the Kirby Laing Institute for Christian Ethics David McIlroy, Visiting Senior Lecturer in Law at SOAS Clifford Longley, author, broadcaster and journalist Julian Rivers, Professor of Jurisprudence at the University of Bristol Nick Spencer, Director of Studies at Theos Nicholas Townsend, Lecturer in Christian Ethics at the South East Institute for Theological Education Nigel G. Wright, Principal of Spurgeons College, London and Tom Wright, Bishop of Durham. | SPCK God & Government Paperback Book
