Synopsis

Is There a Divine Cure for Our Ailing Nation?In The LambÆs Agenda Samuel Rodriguez offers a blueprint for Christian rejuvenation, a prophetic call to orient our lives at the nexus of the cross.Joining the Christianity of Martin Luther King Jr. and Billy Graham, The LambÆs Agenda reveals the crucial connection between biblical social justice and spiritual righteousness. Getting back to the basics of Christianity means extending our efforts simultaneously in the vertical direction of God and the horizontal direction of our neighbors.In this critical moment, begrudging service and empty religiosity must be replaced by the vibrancy of the LambÆs agenda, ChristÆs plan of redemption in the world. A Third Great Awakening, says Rodriguez, awaits Christians who boldly and joyfully embrace both planks of the SaviorÆs cross: obedience to God and service to others.

Goodreads review by Ruth on January 12, 2018

The opening of this book is super compelling, and I'm on board with this book's central message--especially as it's articulated in the first few chapters. Christians must indeed live at the nexus of the the cross, missing neither the vertical (relationship to God) and the horizontal (sacrificial ser......more

DNF it lost my interest and I stopped reading at chapter 22. History bored me. Emphasized Christians call to unity in this segregated world. I was inspired by his passion against racial injustice when he spoke at my church a few years ago so I brought his book......more

Goodreads review by Tim on July 19, 2013

My introduction to the Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference (NHCLC), came by way of YouTube a couple of years ago when I watched the rousing six-minute speech he gave at Ebenezer Baptist Church on MLK Day in 2011 (earlier this year, he became the......more
