How many arresting coincidences must intersect in startling effect before the doubter, if reasonable, must see them as more "real" and more "convincing" than mere coincidence? Or perhaps reasonably merely dismiss the question as not worth challenging the imagination about? But my experience has been rather to find the matter more insistent as episode after episode of life suggests that the signal events of my life have woven a pattern that I could not have intended or expected or deserved, and certainly neither foresaw nor planned.

I want to tell about the man I have most loved, respected, and admired-my father. In many respects, he wasn't unusual. I had to learn how to love, respect, and admire. His integrity was, in my perception at least, absolutely and essentially intact. His kindness, generosity, gracious judgment, empathy, love of the good and of the vulnerable, capacity to forgive and trust again, eagerness to rejoice with those who rejoice and to grieve with those who grieve, all such qualities of mind and heart that might be considered weak and naive, all of it, worked against his success. Maybe so. I loved him for it, though I did not always rise to his example. God's blessing, I pray, on those of us who try.

This is a book for practicing Christians, those who want to be doers of the word and not hearers only. Its working thesis is that Jesus intended not merely to inform us of a new life, but also to exemplify and encourage and lead and command us to live it. Too often we have merely run with the footmen, and even so we have been weary. Jesus calls us to run with the horses. All Scripture teaches how. Let us seek and find.

A provocative economic analysis which reconceptualises the nation state as a vehicle for progressive change.
