Overview

Faith that matters begins and ends with Jesus—and is focused on Him everywhere in between. But engaging with Jesus will also and always draw us back to our time and place, to our communities and our world.
Most of them first published by Adventist World online, this collection of essays wrestles with aspects of this faithful process, particularly as it calls us to engage with issues that hurt those who are most marginalised and vulnerable in our world.
Read, share, enjoy, disagree, think, do, engage . . .
