The Urbanity of the Bible: Rediscovering the Urban Nature of the Bible (Urban Ministry in the 21st Century)

I've come to enjoy seemingly all of Sean's writing on how we as Christians are to regard the city. This book is particularly appropriate for interpreting this because of its focus on how the Scriptures address the city and urban life. I appreciate the various examples that he uses and also found myself really enjoying the chapter on the built environment. Lastly, the idea that he puts forth—that the work of the church goes beyond simply populating cities but seeking the peace and welfare of the city—is something that all of us should consider. Great read!

Writing is so God and the ties to Jesus, the Bible, and the Church make reading it exhilarating. Thank you for a wonderful read!
