The idea of being part of a healthy, robust nation – to ‘flourish’ as communities, families and as individuals – is naturally appealing. And as Christians we often feel a sense of responsibility to be ‘agents of flourishing’. But how do we do this intelligently and sustainably? Amy Sherman not only offers a useful theoretical framework for effective cultural engagement, she also tells the stories of those who have brought real change, to real people, facing real issues. An excellent and timely book.
