The fact that we are created in the image of God is or at least should be the foundation for the church’s public witness. But what does the Imago Dei mean, and how should we apply that remarkable principle to Christian citizenship in the United States? Here’s how.

In his book, Dignity Revolution, Daniel Darling shows us how wonderful, liberating and empowering it is to be made in God’s image and how this changes how we see ourselves and all other humans, and how we treat them and advocate for them. Some will feel the call to run for office… others will roll up their sleeves and join the good work of non-profit ministry… and others might simply find little ways to incorporate this vision of human dignity into their everyday lives, and change their community one word, one action, one person at a time. Each one of us can be, and are called to be, part of this new movement – a human dignity revolution that our societies need, and that we are uniquely placed as Christians to join. This compelling book shows you how to join the dignity revolution [note that this section is taken from the book description].

Daniel Darling is an author, pastor and Christian leader. He currently serves as the the Director of The Land Center for Cultural Engagement at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and Assistant Professor of Faith and Culture at Texas Baptist College.
