He contends that the Social Gospel is a call to personal and social transformation, and that the two are interconnected.Mathews examines the role of the individual in the Social Gospel movement, and how individuals can work together to bring about social change. He also discusses the relationship between Christianity and social activism, and the importance of living out one's faith in the world.The book is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the Social Gospel movement, and its relevance to contemporary society.
