Living Right While Righting Wrong: A Salvationist Theology of Protest
For those immersed in The Salvation Army’s mission and ministry, it is impossible to remain indifferent to injustice. Salvationists cannot be invisible or morally mute—our place is on the front lines of need and in the public square of civil discourse. Protesting the world-as-it-is and proclaiming the world-as-it-should-be is essential to the life of holiness for the soldier of Jesus Christ. This is Living Right While Righting Wrong.
The chapters in this book complement the truths we hold dear. Some would ask, “Can there be a theology of protest that shapes a Salvationist response to injustice?” To this we respond, “Read the book!” —General Brian Peddle and Commissioner Rosalie Peddle, International Leaders of The Salvation Army
Authentic, sensitive and systematic. The gospel is not compromised as the author unapologetically lays the foundation and reaffirms the benchmark for Salvationist resistance and protest in today’s turbulent culture. Destined to be core curriculum for all social justice advocates. —Colonel Victor A. Leslie, JD, MBA, Territorial Commander, Nigeria (2015-2021)
