Publisher's Synopsis
When tyrants come to power and Christians remain silent, the church betrays its prophetic role in the public sphere. In this collection of essays, Filipino evangelical theologians challenge the church's complacency in the face of oppressive regimes. This is an excellent resource for students and leaders seeking an Asian evangelical perspective on Christian political engagement. It not only offers intellectual insight on the topic, but empowers its readers to fulfill a prophetic calling - to uphold democracy, peace, and human dignity.
