Description

Bishop C. Andrew Doyle challenges the role of the Christian citizen in a fractious, partisan world. "Christianity," Doyle writes, "is not a spiritual exercise for the individual but a communal expression that, if lived as imagined by God, cannot help but be political. Christianity is about politics."

Reviews

"A keen-eyed theological analysis of where we are today as Christians."
--Stanley Hauerwas, Gilbert T. Rowe Professor Emeritus of Divinity and Law, Duke Divinity School


"An alternative to both apathy and anger, Citizen is a call to discover civic hope. 'Follow Jesus, ' Bishop Doyle urges in a winsome and compelling way, and you'll find yourself mending God's garden--God's home--that is our shared world."
--Miroslav Volf, director of the Yale Center for Faith Culture
