Against Christianity

How could a conservative Christian-an ordained minister with a beard no less-be against not only Christianity but theology sacraments and ethics as well? Yet that is the stance Peter Leithart takes in this provocative theological bricolage.Seeking to rethink evangelical notions of culture church and state Leithart offers a series of short essays aphorisms and parables that challenge the current dichotomies that govern both Christian and non- Christian thinking about church and state the secular and the religious.But his argument isn't limited to being merely against. Leithart reveals a much larger vision of Christian society defined by the stories symbols rituals and rules of a renewed community-the city of God.
