For a Better Worldliness is not only a statement of Abraham Kuypers and Dietrich Bonhoeffers theological concept and historical practice of discipleship. It is alsoand perhaps more importantlya call to engage in the fullness of the Christian life here and now. While this book goes to great efforts to establish sound historical and theological insights specifically in regards to Kuyper and Bonhoeffer, there is a strong underlying current that these particular insights deeply matter to the life of discipleship in the world today. History shows us that discipleship is not a singular journey; because of Jesus Christ it is not a description of one set path with one set of guidelines. A disciple can be a prime minister who unabashedly and successfully campaigned on his Calvinistic principles, just as he can be a participant in a coup détat launched against a tyrant, leading to the disciples own imprisonment and death. Jesus Christ callswhether to the height of political office, or to the dank prison cell, or (more likely for us) to somewhere in between.
