This book discusses the role of the church in society, especially Nigerian society. The author presents a set of issues, such as what is the role of the church in our society; should there be any relationship between the state and the church for the development of society and what could be the effect of such collaboration if there is any? Exploring the issues through Biblical lens, church history, and sociological analysis, the author makes a powerful theological case for the involvement of the church in the societies in which it finds itself called to give a witness, especially in a democratic ambiance. Based on sound scholarship, it offers a series of well-thought-out practical suggestions about how church and state should interact.
