[Davis Smith · Rating 4 out of 5]

A really nice collection of essays on Christianity and culture, mostly from a Lutheran viewpoint with a couple of different (but not opposed) voices sprinkled in. Many of the essays are Lutheran responses to Niebuhr's characterization of "Christ and culture in paradox," but there are also some good ones on more specific topics related to culture and ethics. Worth a perusal if you want a Lutheran companion to such venerable tomes as Hunter's To Change the World.

It seems there is an essay by Michael Ward in this collection.
