Christians are increasingly interested in justice issues. Relief
and development work are important, but beyond that is a need for
advocacy. This book shows how transforming systems and structures
results in lasting change, providing theological rationale and
strategies of action for evangelicals passionate about justice.
Each of the authors contributes both academic expertise and
extensive practical experience to help readers debate, discuss, and
discern more fully the call to evangelical advocacy. They also
guide readers into prayerful, faithful, and wise processes of
advocacy, especially in relation to addressing poverty.
How can Christians witness to the complexity of our world? Gregg
Okesson shows that local congregations are the primary means of
public witness in and for the world. As Christians move back and
forth between their churches and their neighborhoods, workplaces,
and other public spaces, they weave a thick gospel witness. This
introduction to public missiology explains how local congregations
can thicken their witness in the public realms where they live,
work, and play. Real-life examples from around the world help
readers envision approaches to public witness and social change.
