Summary

Jesus Christ has given the church a great mission: to advance the kingdom of God as servants of transforming good news. In this readable, engaging style. Joel Edwards issues a clarion call to return to that vision with a clear, three-point plan. One, present Jesus Christ credibly and with confident boldness. Two, rehabilitate the word evangelical to again mean good news, synonymous with anguish rather than anger, grace rather than opposition, action rather than argument. Three, recognize that the outworking of faith leads to social action and that our churches can be long-term agents of social change. Book jacket.
