Social Conservatism for the Common Good

by Ben Sasse

First published 2023

Robert P. George stands at the center of conservative intellectual life in America. The Princeton jurisprudence professor has shaped evangelical thinking on politics and ethics for decades. Editor Andrew T. Walker brings together prominent evangelical voices including Carl R. Trueman, Hunter Baker, Jennifer Marshall Patterson, and Scott Klusendorf to examine George's philosophical contributions. These scholars analyze George's New Natural Law theory and his approach to faith and reason. They explore how George's Catholic perspective has influenced Protestant political thought. The book examines George's role as chairman of the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom and recipient of the Presidential Citizens Medal. Walker and his contributors show how evangelicals can understand and apply George's ideas to their own public engagement. The analysis covers collaboration across religious boundaries and practical applications for cultural witness.
