Introduction to a conscience Where the action is Humanity in Galilean homespun Voices out of the long night The human factor Plumb bob on the saints The call and the calling Interlocking freedom God made a colorful world Right versus wrong The defilement of the earth Blessed are the peacemakers Making a stab at the issues: church and state, poverty, highway safety, capital punishment, abortion, euthanasia, unnatural sex, alcohol, tobacco The horse and the cart.
Sherwood Eliot Wirt challenges Christians to confront the injustices of our times with Biblical faith and strong action. "Jesus Christ," he says, "would have agreed with Karl Marx that the beginning of all criticism is the criticism of religion." Taking a long look at Christianity as it is actually practiced in America today, the author brings into the open a full and frank discussion of the evangelical Christian's emerging concern for the world in which he lives. He explores such important subjects as Peace, Thermonuclear energy, Race, Birth control, Capital punishment, and Labor-management relations.
