Walter Rauschenbusch is credited by many interpreters as the fountainhead of the social gospel in America. An American Baptist minister of German heritage, Rauschenbusch was the prophet of a movement that created a watershed in American religious thought. This three-volume set makes available the original texts of a seminal thinker in an authorized and critical edition. In Volume II, ethicist David Gushee provides an in-depth analysis of Rauschenbuschs ethics. Included are his major works, CHRISTIANIZING THE SOCIAL ORDER (1912), DARE WE BE CHRISTIAN? (1914), and THE SOCIAL PRINCIPLES OF JESUS (1916). Also included are, UNTO ME (1912), "Some Moral Aspects of the Woman Movement" (1913), and "The Greatest of These" (1913). Rauschenbusch was a dynamic thinker, whose ethics reveal an evolving character from a strictly Biblicist method to his being influenced by Socialist thinkers, German historicism, and American Progressive Era economics.
