"This straightforward and enticing exploration of the Christian
responsibility for moral action is a great starting place for small
groups, ecumenical gatherings and preaching series. Each chapter
ends with insightful questions for further discussion. The endnotes
are especially helpful in compiling readings for further inquiry."

inspiration for transformative action. In such endeavors, few if
any do it better than Walter Brueggemann, and this book is one of
his best." —Anabaptism Today
