Reviews for Christian Political Ethics
"A first-rate collection of essays."
D. A. Brown, CHOICE "Obviously Christianity is a rich and diverse tradition, and this book helps to shed light on the moral and political ideals that animate Christian activists on the political left. I would strongly recommend it for anybody who wants to learn more on the topic."
