National political issues have, as a result, displaced theological and ecclesiastical concerns in the \"agenda\" and priorities of many churches. As a result, churches, especially those dominated by an activist model of the kingdom, fail to address the world in a distinctively Christian manner-that is, as the church.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn his book, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Kingdom and the Power\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Peter J. Leithart shows from Scripture that Christians must neither retreat from the world or idolize power and mammon to influence the world but engage the world--as the church. For wherever Christ is present, there is the kingdom. That means the kingdom of God is in the church, the body of Christ.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faculty \u0026 Alumni","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46406997901536,"sku":"Books:26021n","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Used","offer_id":46406997934304,"sku":"Books:26021u","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/5911\/6768\/files\/51hasuIJt2L._AC_UY327_FMwebp_QL65.webp?v=1727989553","url":"https:\/\/theswordandshovel.com\/products\/kingdom-and-the-power-leithart-paperback","provider":"Sword \u0026 Shovel (403)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
