‘An invaluable guide. . . I wish I had been able to read this book twenty years ago!’
Ruth Valerio
All around us there are signs of a broken world, situations that are just not right. Where do we begin? Sometimes we simply don’t know what to do. Or maybe you are busy ‘doing’ and it’s tough, even bringing you close to burn out.
Whether you are new to activism or already on the road, this book will (re)kindle your hope and illuminate the way ahead.
Featuring contributions from Shane Claiborne, Lisa Sharon Harper, Krish Kandiah, Sam Wells and many more, The Hopeful Activist is full of fresh wisdom and practical advice to help you play your part in bringing God’s justice and restoration to the world around you.
