E 200 Why the Church Should Care About Housing

£2.77

It might be thought that concern for housing was a merely practical issue of ethical concern for Christians. In fact, the issues of house, home and land are a central thread in the biblical narrative.

This important study shows how the elements of that narrative translate into specific aspirations for housing policy, and thus how Christian hope speaks into this most fundamental of human needs.
