Hidden Threads: A Christian Critique of Sociological Theory,
provides a framework for making sense of the social world.
Heddendorf finds in sociological theories some "hidden threads" -
Christian principles woven into the fabric of society. Early
Christian thought was radical in its approach to social life. Jesus
provided a different concept of the person, and encouraged his
followers to act upon this new understanding. Thus, in the early
centuries after Christ, Christian social thought was a dynamic,
positive, social force, but today the situation differs. Many
Christians readily accept current interpretations of problems as
valid. Consequently, in response to these modern explanations,
Christians develop a form of secularized thought which supports
popular solutions and fails to critically engage with the real
issues of the day. Hidden Threads is an examination and Christian
critique of sociological theory, demonstrating appreciation for the
richness of social life and holding in tension those theories that
attempt to explain it.
