With The Republic of Grace Charles Mathewes aims to supply a primer
of politics and the public square to help Christians in these dark
times find hope in public life. He asks such questions as How
should our Christian convictions lead us to see the world
differently than those who do not share them? What are the
categories that believers should use to act on the challenges of
the world?
Mathewes uses theological virtues best loved by Augustine faith,
hope, and love to provide an analogical mirror for Christian
citizenship in a post9/11 American world. He examines not how
religion has shaped our politics but rather how politics has shaped
and mis-shaped our religious life and how we can begin to correct
that shape.
The Republic of Grace will help reignite and inform a fierce
commitment to the common good of our society, caring concern for
the least and most vulnerable, and the use of each persons gifts,
power, and wealth as a force for good and justice in the world. In
short, this book will enable readers to realize the sacramental
possibilities of political life.
