"A Theology for the Social Gospel is Walter Rauschenbusch's most enduring work. As "the father of the Social Gospel" in the United States, he articulates the theological roots of the social activism that surged forth from mainline Protestant churches in the early part of this century. Skillfully examining the great theological issues of the Christian faith--sin, evil, salvation, the kingdom of God--Rauschenbusch offers a foundation upon which the church is to fully engage society.
