A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

As a pandemic and racial reckoning exposed society's faults, Christian thinkers were laying the groundwork for a better future.

A public health and economic crisis provoked by Covid-19. A social crisis cracked open by the filmed murder of George Floyd. A leadership crisis laid bare as the gravity of a global pandemic met a country suffocating in political polarization and idolatry. In the spring of 2020 Comment and Plough magazines created a joint publishing project that would tap the resources of the Christian humanist tradition to respond collaboratively and imaginatively to these crises. This volume, written in real time during a year that revealed the depths of our society's fissures, provides a wealth of proposals and reflections on what should come after: how we can truly renew our civilization.

Breaking Ground has grown into a network of institutions and people that will continue to respond to these ongoing challenges with a deeply Christian and human vision for the future.
