Is Christianity a private faith or a public calling? While Western tradition distinguishes between the domains of "God and Caesar," the practical boundaries of this division remain a central challenge for the contemporary believer. In
Politics and Human Flourishing: A Christian Vision, this tension is explored through the lens of political theology. What vision of human nature should guide society? How do the values of liberal democracy align with scriptural principles? Should a Christian's focus be a "citizenship in heaven," or does human flourishing require active political engagement?
Drawing on the breadth of the Christian tradition, this collection provides a multidisciplinary framework for exploring church-state relations and the pursuit of the common good. As contemporary politics struggle to define "the good life," these essays offer a profound--and often countercultural--vision of society grounded in the love of God and neighbor. This volume serves as a vital roadmap for readers seeking to promote human flourishing through political engagement while remaining faithful followers of Jesus Christ.
