Description
In order to understand the problems that face the world, you have to understand human nature.
From exploitation and violence to decisions about how to wisely govern or care for human life, the problems humanity faces aren't just abstract issues--they impact the day-to-day lives of many individuals and communities across the globe. How should Christians wrestle with these complex and difficult problems in a thoughtful, ethical way?
According to Jeffrey A. Brauch, we need to start with an informed grasp of human nature. It's only by understanding our nature correctly that we can recognize our our profound value as God's good creation despite our fallen condition, and uphold our equal human rights regardless of our differences.
Flawed Perfection will help Christians from across the political and cultural spectrum think carefully about and actively respond to these issues with both gravity and grace.
