"As we look at the world-class cities around our planet, we face
five new urban realities: a crack cocaine epidemic, assault
weapons, massive numbers of homeless children, HIV/AIDS and (in the
U.S.) what Time magazine has called the browning of America.' The
needs of the urban population are greater than ever. . . . As our
cities swell with immigrants, I'm reminded that Jesus was born in a
borrowed barn in Asia and became an African refugee in Egypt, so
the Christmas story is about an international migrant. Furthermore,
a whole village full of baby boys died for Jesus before he had the
opportunity to die for them on the cross. Surely this Jesus
understands the pain of children who die for the sins of adults in
our cities." How does God see the city? What does Scripture have to
say about urban ministry? These are the questions Ray Bakke has
systematically addressed, beginning with Genesis and continuing
through to Revelation. Here is a biblical theology that will
constantly surprise and challenge as you get a glimpse of how big
God's view of the city really is.
