About this listen

Drawing on a collection of lectures that N. T. Wright delivered from 1999 to 2015, God in Public brings together the message of Jesus—in its larger biblical context—and the challenges of the contemporary public and political worlds.

In this book, Wright challenges the West's response to 9/11 and then expands to discuss a more Jesus inspired way of approaching the public problems we find ourselves in, based on following Jesus' life and teachings.

Questions such as: What has Christianity to do with power? Why must the church remind those in authority of their responsibilities? And What can Christians do to act as the voice of the voiceless? Are central in this book as Wright demonstrates the many ways in which faithful exegesis of scripture can throw fresh light—God's light—on the great philosophical and ethical problems of our day.
