Review
Kendall Baker's terrific book shows how faith-based community organizing transformed his life and ministry, and how it can revivify the spiritual and civic lives of ministers and congregations alike. When Faith Storms the Public Square is for all those who care about faith communities, the spiritual health of ministers, or the role of religion in our democratic life. --(Professor Richard Wood, University of New Mexico, author of Faith in Action: Religion, Race, and Democratic Organizing in America)
Product Description
To some, the notion of mixing religious groups and community organizing may seem a pleasing prospect, an idea long overdue. To others, it may be anathema.
