Description
Long a powerful voice for progressive Protestants, Forbes draws on a record of political commitment ranging from the Civil Rights Movement to stirring addresses at political conventions, in addition to his 18 years at the helm of New York Citys historic Riverside Church. Reflecting the insights of his years as a pastor, a teacher and an adviser to political leaders, including Bill Clinton, this inspiring manifesto for the healing of the nations epitomises the best thinking of one of the foremost religious leaders.
