Inescapably political: sermon preached in Oak Hill Chapel /​ David Field. "What is 'public theology'? Does it mean the arts? Public policy? Party politics? The answer is: probably all of these. Here we are dealing with a rather ill-formed topic, on which there has not been a consistent viewpoint. This volume, based on the Eleventh Oak Hill Annual School of Theology, offers a conversation among those who represent a consistently orthodox evangelicalism, who see public life in relation to the Christian gospel in quite different ways, but who are committed to thinking biblically about the matter and coming to a common mind."--back cover Church and the world Church and state Evangelicalism Political aspects Established churches ddc AM 0 0 ddc 0 0 261 Social theology and interreligious relations and attitudes MAIN MAIN OPEN 2019-06-20 1 261.7/HIG 123511 2021-04-21 00:00:00 2021-04-19 2019-06-20 AM
