Politics & Mission by Martin Gainsborough

Politics & Mission by Martin Gainsborough

The Church is political because it tells a radically different story from the dominant political norms of our day. Through a study of the Church's liturgy, this book seeks to build confidence in the Church's mission that is not dull or out of touch but fresh, relevant, exciting, and contemporary.
