Russell Moore Endorsement of Holy Subversion
Dr. Russell Moore is the Dean of the School of Theology at Southern Seminary. He is the author of an influential book on the evangelical view of the kingdom of God, The Kingdom of Christ: The New Evangelical Perspective and a very good book on adoption, Adopted for Life: The Priority of Adoption for Christian Families & Churches.
During my time at Southern, I have been blessed by Dr. Moore’s books and blog, but most of all by his friendship and his commitment to serving the local church. I am grateful for the ministry of Russell Moore and his gracious recommendation of Holy Subversion: Allegiance to Christ in an Age of Rivals
:
“Christianity is all about paradox. We lose our lives to gain them. We find life in crucifixion. We serve in order to reign. In his book, Holy Subversion, Trevin Wax takes up the question of how to be both a rebel—against the false authorities of this time—while simultaneously being submissive—to the divine authority of the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. This book is a helpful warning against both nihilism and cynicism.”
