Generous Justice: How God's Grace Makes Us Just
by Timothy J. Keller
by Timothy J. Keller
I very much enjoyed reading this book on Justice by Tim Keller. I think the Author correctly examines many of the different approaches Society / Political Systems / Churches take when it comes to dealing with poverty and social justice - and I liked that he pointed out strengths as well as weaknesses. Whilst the Author is American, I think this book works well for most of us in the Western World and perhaps even further. Also whilst the Author is Evangelical, he points out the strengths in Liberal Christianity as well as weaknesses in Evangelicalism.
The book is very biblically based, with coverage not just on Gospels but the Law, the Prophets, Wisdom Literature, Acts, Epistles, etc... Well worth the read for anyone seriously asking about how to be the sort of Christian that our Saviour would want us to be. Even if you don't agree with all that the Author has to say, I think it is well worth the effort to hear him out.
I have been personally challenged by this book - and have much prayer and thought ahead of me, as well as I hope more action and understanding - thus I thank the Author for that.
