Bacote, Vincent, 1965-

The spirit in public theology : appropriating the legacy of Abraham Kuyper. - Eugene : Wipf & Stock, 2010. - 172 pages ; 22 cm

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Weaving the thread -- Abraham Kuyper's public theology at its zenith (1890-1905) -- The spirit of Kuyper's public theology -- The spirit and creation stewardship -- Compelled to "go public."

In The Spirit in Public Theology, Bacote shows how Dutch politician and church leader Abraham Kuyper lived a thoroughly Christian life, and explains why Christians need to follow Kuyper by taking their faith into the public sphere. Identifying the characteristics of a true Christian worldview, Bacote demonstrates the need for a public theology that stresses engagement between the church and the world. The Spirit in Public Theology should be required reading for pastors, students, and all Christians who want to take their faith beyond the four walls of the Church.
