In Resurrection City Peter Heltzel paints a prophetic picture of an
evangelical Christianity that eschews a majority mentality and
instead fights against racism, inequality, and injustice, embracing
the concerns of the poor and marginalized, just as Jesus did.
Placing society's needs front and center, Heltzel calls for radical
change and collective activism modeled on God's love and justice.
In particular, Heltzel explores the social forms that love and
justice can take as religious communities join together to build
-beloved cities.- He proclaims the importance of -improvising for
justice- -- likening the church's prophetic ministry to jazz music
-- and develops a biblical theology of shalom justice. His vision
draws inspiration from the black freedom struggle and the lives of
Sojourner Truth, Howard Thurman, and Martin Luther King Jr. Pulsing
with hope and beauty, Resurrection City compels evangelical
Christians to begin -a global movement for love and justice- that
truly embodies the kingdom of God.
