What Are Christians For?: Life Together at the End of the World

What Are Christians For? by Jake Meador is a groundbreaking book that offers a fresh perspective on Christian political witness in our modern Western society.

This comprehensive guide provides a detailed explanation of how politics should be defined by fidelity to the common good of all members of society, rather than being defined by a determination to bend the natural world and human life to its own political and economic ends. The book offers a unique approach to Christian politics that is rooted in the givenness and goodness of the created world, rejecting the late modern revolution at every turn.

It also provides a profoundly pro-life perspective that attends closely to the natural world and renounces the metallic fantasies that have poisoned common life in America for too long. With its antiracist, anticapitalist, and deeply informed account of Christian social doctrine, this book is an essential read for anyone seeking a more just and equitable society.

Whether you're a seasoned political theorist or simply looking for a fresh perspective on Christian politics, What Are Christians For? by Jake Meador is sure to inspire and inform your thoughts on the role of faith in public life.
