Recognizing and Resisting Evil is a timely, prophetic, and humane call for the church to wrestle with evil in ways that are realistic and faithful. This is not easy reading--nor should it be--but rather an invitation to face the reality of evil with humility and hope. --Susan Eastman, author of Paul and the Person: Reframing Paul's Anthropology In this book, John Swinton takes a clear-eyed look at a topic that our culture either equivocates about or ignores. From politics to pornography, Swinton takes away our excuses for evil with one hand while offering us the tools for transformation with the other. This is practical theology at its best. --Bethany Sollereder, Laudato Si' Research Institute, University of Oxford
