Faith-Rooted Organizing: Mobilizing the Church in Service to the World

by Alexia Salvatierra, Peter Heltzel, Peter Goodwin Heltzel, et al.

Book Overview

Since the 1930s, organizing movements for social justice in the U.S. have largely been built on secular assumptions. But what if Christians were to shape their organizing around the implications of the truth that God is real and Jesus is risen? Reverend Alexia Salvatierra and theologian Peter Heltzel propose a model of organizing that arises from their Christian convictions, with implications for all faiths.
