Work
The Powers That Be: Theology for a New Millennium
This book examines the concept of 'the powers that be' from a theological perspective, considering how traditional Christian teachings on authority, evil, and redemption apply to the challenges of a new millennium. It likely engages with contemporary social and political structures, arguing for a theology that addresses systemic issues while remaining grounded in biblical principles. The work may draw on thinkers such as Walter Wink or other theologians who have written about spiritual warfare and the principalities and powers, aiming to provide a relevant and transformative vision for believers navigating a complex, globalized society. more
