Embracing Prodigals

More about the book

Exploring the theological and political divides among Christians, the book delves into two social science models: Nurturant and Authoritative. It highlights how core values shape differing views on issues like same-gender marriage and healthcare. Nurturants emphasize empathy and cooperation, while Authoritatives focus on law and order. The text argues that Jesus exemplified the Nurturant lifestyle, promoting grace and care for others. Contemporary research suggests that the Nurturant approach fosters better mental, spiritual health, and stronger communities.
