Canadian Churches & Social Justice
edited by John Williams
Offering an understanding of the churches' involvement in social issues, and new insights in matters which are of wide concern to Canadians.
Canadian churches are taking an increasingly active role in a wide range of public issues - nuclear arms, unemployment and the economy, the environment, immigration and relations with the Third World. They often bring a fresh and challenging viewpoint to these subjects, but their involvement is not always welcomed.
In this important book, editor JOHN WILLIAMS has selected key statements from a wide range of church bodies and leaders and provided an insightful introduction to each.
