Book excerpt: Fifty two sermons from a college campus ministry are arranged in a one-year cycle to provide a thought for the week. A campus minister's remarkable sermons address minority rights, feminism and the sexual revolution, poverty and privilege, law and civil disobedience, space exploration, war and peace, and education. The sermons apply the words and deeds of Jesus, a social activist in his own time, to today's circumstances. Accordingly, these sermons challenge us to find a "right path" of action when facing difficulties. Through principles revealed by Jesus, these sermons show us that finding such a path is possible.
