In this and every age, the church needs the bold proclamation of God's transforming vision to challenge its very human tendency toward expediency and self interest - to jolt it into new insight and energy.
The books Luke and Acts provide that much-needed jolt to conventional wisdom. To read Luke-Acts is to uncover a prophetic vision of Jesus and the church. Johnson identifies in Luke's writings an ongoing call for today's church, grounded in the prophetic ministry of Jesus Christ, to embody and enact God's vision for the world.
