Reclaiming an Evangelical History of Activism In recent years, there has been renewed interest by evangelicals in the topic of biblical social justice. Younger evangelicals and millennials, in particular, have shown increased concern for social issues. But this is not a recent development. Following World War II, a new movement of American evangelicals emerged who gradually increased their efforts on behalf of justice. This work explains the important historical context for evangelical reengagement with social justice issues. The authors provide an overview of post-World War II evangelical social justice and compassion ministries, introducing key figures and seminal organizations that propelled the rediscovery of biblical justice. They explore historical and theological lessons learned and offer a way forward for contemporary Christians.

In a post-9/11 world, Christian. Muslim. Friend. lays out a path toward authentic friendship between Christians and Muslims. Most similar books either teach Christians to evangelize Muslims or else downplay their Christian commitments. The author, who has lived and worked among and befriended Muslims for more than fifty years, offers readers a third way: holding onto the Christ-centered commitments of their faith while cultivating peaceful friendship with Muslims.
