Overview

In Hidden Threads: Social Thought for Christians, sociologist Russell Heddendorf provides the framework Christians need to make sense of the world in which they live. He finds in social thought some hidden threads—Christian principles that hold together the fabric of society. He explains how Christians often separate the Christian principles of behavior from the sociological, thus sacrificing the richness and truth in both. Dr. Heddendorf examines social thought and its development and provides a Christian critique, while at the same time always appreciating the richness of social life and the need to hold in tension those theories attempting to explain it.
