What has Washington to do with Jerusalem? In the raging debates
about the relationship between religion and politics, no one has
explored the religious benefits and challenges of public engagement
for Christian believers - until now. This book defends and details
Christian believers' engagement in contemporary pluralistic public
life not from the perspective of some neutral 'public', but from
the particular perspective of Christian faith, arguing that such
engagement enriches both public life and Christian citizens' faith
themselves. As such it offers not a 'public theology', but a
'theology of public life', analysing the promise and perils of
Christian public engagement, discussing the nature of civic
commitment and prophetic critique, and the relation of a loving
faith to a liberal politics of justice. Theologically rich,
philosophically rigorous, politically, historically and
sociologically informed, this book advances contemporary discussion
of 'religion and public life' in fundamental ways.
