Transforming Society: Melba Padilla Maggay Reprint edition

How does the Church's mission relate to social justice? This book contains case studies from frontline situations. Can the Church stand apart from the struggle for social justice? If not, what are the biblical models for effective involvement? The answers given in this book draw on the author's experiences in the Philippines during the rise and fall of the Marcos regime. Case studies show how churches can find many different ways to bring the transforming principles of God's kingdom into the life of their communities.
