John Howard Yoder, whom author Mark Thiessen Nation believes correctly, in my estimation to have offered "the most powerful articulation of a Christian theological rationale for pacifism that has ever been given," p. But Nation's knowledge of Yoder makes up for the dullness of the book. Josh rated it really liked it Jun 13, Social Irresponsibility or the Offense of the Cross?

This book is not yet featured on Listopia. Dec 10, Jeremy Garber rated it liked it Shelves: A serviceable introduction to the work of quietly influential and widely under-read theologian John Howard Yoder, writer of the Politics of Jesus and a host of other work. Anything that gets Christians reading JHY is worthwhile in my eyes.
