Synopsis "Faith and Bayan: Evangelical Christian Engagement in the Philippine Context (in English)"
When tyrants come to power and Christians remain silent, the church betrays its prophetic role in the public sphere. Far from withdrawing from social-political engagement, Christians must grow in boldness as they embody a just, righteous, and godly love for their country and its people.In this collection of essays, Filipino evangelical theologians challenge the church's complacency in the face of oppressive regimes. Addressing the specific realities of President Rodrigo Duterte's administration, they draw on biblical studies, political theology, and ethics to provide a biblical and theological framework for Christians seeking to resist injustice in both the Philippines and beyond. Faith and Bayan is an excellent resource for students and leaders seeking an Asian evangelical perspective on Christian political engagement. It not only offers intellectual insight on the topic, but empowers its readers to fulfill a prophetic calling - to uphold democracy, peace, and human dignity.
