In order to understand the problems that face the world, you have to understand human nature.Issues created by humanity itself seem to plague our worldÑfrom exploitation and violen ce to decisions about how to wisely govern or care for human life. And these topics arenÕt just abstract problemsÑthey impact the day-to-day lives of many individuals globally.But in light of the complexity and brokenness that such issues hold, how should Christians respond in a thoughtful, ethical way?It starts, says Jeffrey A. Brauch, with a correct view of human nature, one based in the BibleÑwhich says that weÕre both fallen but also created in GodÕs image, sinless. Such a perspective gives us a starting place from which to speak out against injustice while fundamentally seeing humanity as GodÕs creations. By looking at legal policy and history and the ways that both legal action and grassroots activism have succeeded and failed, Flawed Perfection is a non-partisan examination of many issues that challenge Christians todayÑand provides the language to think carefully through and then respond to those issues in light of the gospel.
