Description

Navigating by the Son: Finding Our Way in an Unfamiliar Landscape by Stephen Cox explores how Christians can live with deep disagreements. The author reflects on what it means to be Christlike, considering questions such as why Jesus invited obedience but never coerced it and whether institutions can embody this spirit. The book examines the importance of a healthy church and society in rapidly changing times, where anger and division are common responses. Cox draws on his personal experience of coming to terms with his son's sexuality, highlighting the need for Christians to seek a deeper understanding of what it means to follow Jesus. By grasping this afresh, readers can be good news to all sides in the growing 'culture wars' and those weary of 'religion'. This thoughtful exploration offers valuable insights into the nature of truth, human anger, and the role of institutions in society.
