Liberty for All: Defending Everyone's Religious Freedom in a Pluralistic Age Tapa blanda - 2021

Descripción de contraportada

Christians are often thought of as defending only their own religious interests in the public square, but they can become the strongest defenders of religious liberty for all.

"Liberty for All delivers a robust treatment of the concept of religious liberty, a notion not merely political, merely modern, or merely American, but one, as Walker expertly shows, that gets at the heart of what it means to bear God's image, to exercise moral agency, and to live with love toward all neighbors."
--Karen Swallow Prior, author of On Reading Well

"In a time when the term 'religious liberty' has become a byword for bigotry among some, Walker pushes back against this narrow-minded prejudice and argues for why honoring and defending freedom of religious conscience is essential to the public good. This book appears as a lighthouse in a gathering storm."
--Rod Dreher, author of The Benedict Option

"Freedom of worship is indeed an inalienable right, not because of the substance of one's religious beliefs but because of the substance of one's status as God's image bearer. As hostility toward the Christian faith increases, few ideas are worth contending for with such urgency as the claim that liberty is indeed for everyone."
--Katie McCoy, assistant professor, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary

"For a generation raised on the angry soundbites of Twitter and carefully curated news programs, this book will be challenging but, when read carefully and thoughtfully, transformative."
--Carl R. Trueman, author of The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self

"Walker explains how religious liberty makes sense as an authentic expression of a Christian worldview and is indelibly tied to the biblical story. He has established himself as one of the preeminent Baptist public theologians of our time."
--Michael F. Bird, academic dean and lecturer, Ridley College, Melbourne, Australia
