After Christendom
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I found this book to be a heavy read, but it certainly got me thinking seriously about what it really means to be a Christian in a so-called Christian Nation.
A Critique of Liberal Democracy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Although this is not Hauerwas' best book, it is still an excellent read. Hauerwas challenges commonly held conceptions about how the church should interact with a democratic society. He then offers an alternative paradigm for the church, one that involves the discipline of a community to help people learn to worship God. In the last two chapters, Hauerwas explores some concrete practices that should accompany such an understanding of the church. Whether you agree with it or not, this book will certainly make you think about the way Christians should live in a democracy.
