Publisher's Summary

This is the first book title of a two-part series on the writings of the apostle Luke. More than just a Bible study, this book is a running third person commentary on the Gospel of Luke as seen through his eyes. 

Filled with vivid details and little-known facts, this work of Christian nonfiction literature is filled with inspiration and deep knowledge. It gives the listener a sense of inner peace and spiritual respite as it's being read that is unmatched with any other Christian nonfiction that one may have listened to before. The book is written from the theme of the Social Gospel. The phrase “social gospel” is usually used to describe a Protestant Christian intellectual movement that first came to prominence in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Those who adhere to a social gospel seek to apply Christian ethics to social problems such as poverty, slums, poor nutrition and education, alcoholism, crime, and war. The Social Gospel is especially promulgated among liberal Protestant ministers. 

Today, the Social Gospel has been revived in the southeastern US and elsewhere across North America as something that can benefit a lot of sick and hurting people, as it paves a way forward to ending poverty and hunger while reestablishing social and economic equality. The public is hungry and thirsty for the Social Gospel's message of real Truth due in part to widespread disenchantment from traditional churches. This book fills that Spiritual void with a Christian populist message that is in a category all by itself.
