Biblical Ethics and Social Change

Stephen Charles Mott's "Biblical Ethics and Social Change" is a scholarly synthesis of biblical studies and Christian social ethics. The book is divided into two parts: the first part discusses the biblical theology of intentional social change, focusing on grace, evil, love, justice, and the Reign of God. The second part evaluates ethical and theological methods for implementing social change, including evangelism, counter community, civil disobedience, armed revolution, and political reform. Mott emphasizes the importance of justice in bringing back those near to falling out of the community and the role of political authority in social change for justice. The book is updated for contemporary social life and includes Mott's reflections from the last thirty years on the topic
