Issues Facing Christians Today immediately became essential reading for all thinking Christians when it was first published. It has now been revised and fully updated to tackle the diverse array of social and moral responsibilities facing us today.
This new edition builds on the previous one, examining the contemporary realities of war, the trauma of unemployment, the changing face of human rights, our environmental awakening from Rio to Kyoto and many more contemporary challenges.
As the culture wars continue this book will remain an essential contribution, helping to define Christian social and moral thinking well into the new millennium.
