“Combining elements of history, theology, and autobiography, Tim Suttle has written a thought-provoking book that serves as a fresh assessment of Walter Rauschenbusch for the 21st century church. In an age when many Christians use labels such as ‘evangelical’ and ‘liberal’ in an uncritical fashion, Suttle calls upon his audience to reflect on how a recovery of the past can lead to a fresh understanding of Christianity today. While written primarily with an evangelical audience in mind, Suttle’s study provides a welcome perspective not only on Walter Rauschenbusch and the social gospel, but on how Christianity in America might unfold over the course of the next several decades.”

Dr. Evans is one of the world’s leading scholars on the life of Walter Rauschenbusch, a character who plays a prominent role in this book. His biography The Kingdom is Always but Coming, is the definitive work on WR’s life (in my opinion). Thanks Dr. Evan’s for your generous review! ts
