Synopsis
The contributors to this volume call for the formation of a “loyal opposition” that is serious in its commitment to the difficult process of reconciliation and forgiveness. Faithfulness to the gospel, they remind readers, requires nothing less than Christians will be committed to the full inclusion of all persons in the body of Christ—not least of all those who disagree theologically and ethically.
