What is this book about?
A number of Christian thinkers are saying that the Church has undergone a New Reformation during these past few decades which has made our theology more accessible to the unchurched world.
Wouldn't it be great if this paved the way for a new wave of social reform to follow in its wake, which is exactly what happened following the original Reformation. William and Catherine Booth, John Wesley, William Wilberforce, Elizabeth Fry and others built on the new thinking of Luther, Calvin et al and transformed the social landscape of Great Britain by demonstrating the Good News in action as well as proclaiming it in words.
This book is an announcement that such a new wave of social transformation is well and truly underway! And nothing makes the message of Christ more accessible to the outside world than seeing it at work in practical ways: not only changing lives one at a time but also whole communities as Christians get together to attack injustice, reduce crime, empower the poor.
It contains inspiring stories from all across the UK and beyond that will move you to tears and cause your spirit to rejoice. 21st Century miracles of social transformation to the glory of God.
