This collection of lectures by Catherine Booth and William Booth
form a passionate call to Christians to improve the dire social
status of society's poor and downtrodden. Along with her husband
William Booth, who assisted in the preparation and publication of
this splendid book, Catherine Booth was a fervent supporter of
Christian charity; extending support and aid to help the
disadvantaged was seen by the author to be a crucial tenet of good
character. Throughout her life, Catherine Booth would point to
Christ as a prime example of a Christian virtue and self-sacrifice.
At the time Catherine Booth wrote these talks in the late 19th
century, levels of poverty in the United States and Europe were
abysmally great. It is by casting her gaze back to the life of
Jesus Christ that Booth sees a clear inspiration for all in the
face of such degradation. Only when Christians unite in opposition
to poverty will social reform and improvements take hold in wider
society.

This is a republication of a Christian classic. Have you noticed
that contemporary Christianity is lacking backbone? Every day our
culture slides farther and farther away from God and it seems we
are powerless to stop it. We need the Spirit of the original
apostles. They turned the world upside down with their radical
faith in God. They changed the course of history and we can too.
But if we want the same results the got, we must have the same
faith that they had. Aggressive Christianity is a call to radical
discipleship. It will challenge even those who think they are
sold-out. It will call you to be what God truly intended you to be.
In this book Catherine Booth explains what it means to be a real
Christian, and how real Christians change the world. She lays the
foundation of what true conversion is, how the Gospel is advanced,
and shows how we can and must recapture the Spirit of of the
original apostles. This is a serious call for serious believers.
Maybe it's time you walked in Aggressive Christianity
That is, it always manifests itself in harmony with the great moral
law of the universe--it never does evil that good may come! You
never hear it saying--"I cannot say that this is exactly square; I
know this is not exactly the right course, but then I can
accomplish such and such objects by adopting it." Never! that is of
the devil! You may always know that the law of righteousness is
entwined round the very heart of Divine Charity, and as justice and
judgment are the habitation of the throne of its Divine Author, so
righteousness is in the very core of its soul. It will never
sacrifice righteousness for peace, or anything else.
