Publisher's Synopsis
Newly appointed spiritual adviser to President Bill Clinton, Tony Campolo, sets out his visionary challenge for a just and moral society.
A powerful, prophetic message on how people with Christian beliefs need to make a difference to society. He challenges apathy, all-pervasive consumerism, slavery to want and injustice, setting out a radical alternative. He says:
`It seems as though the West has lost its soul.'
`Our Western culture is sick, our politicians cynical. In America we have elected the first Democrat as President since Jimmy Carter in an attempt to stem the economic and moral malaise the country is in.'
`The spiritual death of the nation may be a serious
problem, and the need for a prophetic call to repentance may be a crucial necessity, but so many in the Sunday morning congregation have other concerns.'
`'The biblical Jesus not only is desperate to help lost sinners "find themselves" but also wills to express the righteousness of Heaven in the context of those social insitutions wherein we must live our lives.'
