by Miranda Zapor Cruz (Author)
How should Christians faithfully engage with politics in an increasingly polarized and complex society?
Faithful Politics by Miranda Zapor Cruz offers a thoughtful and balanced road map for navigating this challenging question. Rather than prescribing easy answers or simplistic checklists, this book invites readers into a reflective exploration of ten distinct approaches to Christian political engagement, providing meaningful tools for deeper understanding.
In this book Cruz guides readers in forming a vision of citizenship that brings Christian convictions into political engagement while avoiding common pitfalls. Cruz also provides a measured, nonpartisan overview of different ways Christians haveapproached political participation. These ten views represent a range of theological approaches to the relationship between the kingdom of God and the country, including Anabaptist, social gospel, principled pluralist, and Christian nationalist. Cruz describes strengths and weaknesses of each view, with a focus on Christian faithfulness.
In Faithful Politics, you'll find
- Thorough Scholarship: Presents ten distinct approaches to politics, ranging from separatist to dominionist and more
- A Balanced Presentation: Offers a nonpartisan perspective while addressing strengths and weaknesses
- Scriptural and Theological Insights: Establishes guiding principles grounded in Scripture to help shape faithful political participation
Cruz observes that in the United States Christians with shared faith convictions can often reach differing political conclusions. However, Scripture and theology provide guiding principles that shape our thinking and remind us that our ultimate citizenship is in the kingdom of God. Faithful Politics invites readers to learn from Christians of the past as we discern how to be salt andlight in our own time and place.
