Mark J. Cartledge argues that the contemporary church can be
empowered in its engagement with issues in public life through
reading specific New Testament texts that focus on the person and
work of the Holy Spirit. This book provides a Spirit-empowered
approach to church praxis that is located within the discourse of
public theology. In this construction, the church is called to
"walk alongside" the world in critical companionship for the sake
of the common good of all people. What this looks like is explored
by means of four specific themes: poverty and health care, race and
ethnicity, and sex trafficking and domestic violence. Finally,
Cartledge proposes that the church engage with society by "being
truthful with love." This posture provides the integrating center
for the life of the church and its mission in the world.
