Christians
respond in many ways to threat of war. Too often that response is
fired by prejudice, by "widely-held opinions," and particularly by
fear. In this book David Atkinson lays out some of the theological
groundwork needed for an exploration of Christian ways of
establishing justice and making peace.
This book does not talk military or venture
into political decisions or tell anyone how to think or how to vote.
Instead, in a clear and sensible manner, it sketches out some
Christian theological themes that should have relevance for ordinary
Christians who want to think through a biblical approach to this
very important and timely issue.
