The Old Testament is a model for (re)discovering God's principles for making disciples of all nations. Do you wonder why the Christian faith has become weak and ineffective when it comes to dealing with politics, economics, beauty, family, and other everyday issues?
Throughout history, Christians have thought and acted in ways that have influenced communities and nations in the development of public education, workers' rights, economic development, the concept of a free press, and aid to victims and the poor. Martin Luther is said to have remarked that a Gospel that does not address the problems of the day is not the Gospel at all. In this book, you will discover biblical thought that applies effectively and redemptively to the problems of the twenty-first century.
Landa Cope has taken up the challenge of applying the principles of the Old Testament model to political, business, and church leaders across all continents. Now it is up to you to discover how a Christianity grounded in life-giving, relevant, and effective biblical thought can (re)establish a just influence in the public sphere.
