Description: The debate about whether we should remain in or leave the EU is complex, and is compounded by general ignorance of the structures and history of the EU, and lack of reflection on biblical and theological perspectives. This immensely helpful booklet seeks to address all these areas, exploring biblical perspectives on nationhood as well as outlining the political and economic issues at stake. It will be an indispensable guide to Christians seeking to vote wisely.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 30-32).
