Faith, Freedom, and the Future

Autor Michael Nazir-Ali
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 mai 2016
With unique insight and wisdom, Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali surveys the current challenges facing today's church and provides a compelling hope-filled vision of what a living Christian faith, and its comprehensive outworking, can offer society today. Bishop Michael boldly tackles a range of pressing and controversial issues with astute scholarship and understanding--including: the challenges of Islam, freedom and conscience, the 'modern family', bioethics, and the uncertain future of the worldwide Anglican Communion and, by implication, other mainline denominations. Michael Nazir-Ali is the President of the Oxford Centre for Training, Research, and Advocacy and Dialogue (OXTRAD). He was Bishop of Rochester from 1994-2009. Prior to this, he was the General Secretary of the Church Mission Society (CMS), having been Bishop of Raiwind, Pakistan, where he has both a Christian and a Muslim family background. He is the author of several books, including Triple Jeopardy for the West (2012).
