Product Description
Politics has become something of a joke-but not a funny one. Sound-bite and knee-jerk have replaced reasoned debate and the church appears to wear a one-size-fits-all political jacket. Isn't it time to think a bit deeper? Carl Trueman takes you on a readable, provocative, and lively romp through Christianity and politics.
