Engaging the Powers: Discernment and Resistance in a World of Domination, Vol. 3 ANNOTATION Final volume in Wink's Powers trilogy. Expanding upon his hypothesis that the "principalities and powers" of the New Testament are the social systems that sustain life and maintain order, Wink says that subversion of the powers resulted in the Domination System--male supremacy, economic oppression, class distinction, and racism--which Jesus intended to replace.
FROM THE PUBLISHER In this magnificent finale to his trilogy, Walter Wink engages the Powers with brilliant exegesis and a profoundly creative nonviolence, revealing the way to the Powers' and our own transformation.--James W. Douglass, Ground Zero Community
