"Comprehensive but compact, Creation or Empire is a relentlessly researched and argued celebration of the  anti-empire and, perhaps more important for this historical moment, anti-fascist of the biblical tradition. It is an accessible resource for preachers, scholars and followers on the way, who seek to live joyful resistance."- Laurel Dykstra, priest of Salal + Cedar Watershed Discipleship Community, Vancouver, BC

Wes’s brilliant volumes “Come Out My People!” and “Empire Baptized,” offer a comprehensive interpretation of the Bible and church history in terms of the struggle between a “Religion of Creation” (represented by the prophets and Jesus) and the Religion of Empire. Together, they are 800pp. This short volume, aimed at a general audience, will summarize those volumes and show their relevance for today.

 

Wes Howard-Brook is the author of several Orbis Books, a brilliant biblical scholar, teacher, and proponent of radical discipleship. Formerly taught at Seattle University. Collaborates in the ministry Abide in Me with his wife Sue Ferguson Johnson. He has a YouTube channel called Radical Bible.
