Social Ethics: Living as Salt and Light in Society
By Dr. Venkat Potana
Length5h 5m
About this audiobook
“Christian faith is meant to be lived within the real world, among people, cultures, institutions, and communities. This book connects biblical principles with contemporary questions of work, migration, technology, social division, public responsibility, vulnerable people, and community life, showing how followers of Jesus can live with wisdom, compassion, justice, and courage.
These pages invite Christians to move beyond observation toward faithful action—to understand their neighbors, build trust, protect those with less power, engage disagreement with grace, and seek the good of society. May this work encourage believers to live as salt and light, bringing the character of Christ into the places where they live, work, serve, and lead.”
