The Latin American church cries out for enlightenment in the face of the chaos that society is experiencing. How can we respond to so many seemingly insurmountable social problems and conflicts? John Stott provides us with the longed-for guidance so that Christians can be a light in the world.
The first chapter analyzes the nature of our social commitment. The second focuses on international problems, the nuclear threat and the environment, economic inequalities, and human rights. The third deals with specific social problems: work and unemployment, labor relations, racism, and lifestyle. The last chapter addresses sexual ethics, marriage, divorce, abortion, and homosexual relationships.
