A Theology for the Social Gospel

In A Theology for the Social Gospel, Walter Rauschenbusch sets out a theological basis for the Social Gospel movement. He explores how key Christian doctrines apply in the Social Gospel, including sin and redemption, the atonement, the Holy Spirit, eschatology, and the Kingdom of God. Rauschenbusch argues that all society must be brought “under the law of Christ” and that the church should be a significant social factor.
