4.0 out of 5 stars A Critique of Liberal Democracy, December 29, 2002

By	Tedd Steele (Naperville, IL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Although this is not Hauerwas' best book, it is still an excellent read. Hauerwas challenges commonly held conceptions about how the church should interact with a democratic society. He then offers an alternative paradigm for the church, one that involves the discipline of a community to help people learn to worship God. In the last two chapters, Hauerwas explores some concrete practices that should accompany such an understanding of the church. Whether you agree with it or not, this book will certainly make you think about the way Christians should live in a democracy.

4.0 out of 5 stars After Christendom, August 18, 2008

By	C. Edwards - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I found this book to be a heavy read, but it certainly got me thinking seriously about what it really means to be a Christian in a so-called Christian Nation.
