Between Nations and the KingdomIdentity, Sovereignty, and the Struggle for OrderA Theological Dialogue with Greenfeld, Arendt, and the Crisis of Our AgeThe world is shaking - politically, culturally, spiritually. Nations fracture over identity. Governments fight to maintain legitimacy. Communities lose trust. And beneath it all, ordinary people are asking urgent questions:Who are we?Who really rules us?Can what we’ve built endure?Drawing together the insights of sociologist Liah Greenfeld on the forging and fracture of national identity, political philosopher Hannah Arendt on the collapse of authority, and the enduring witness of Scripture on God’s unshakable reign, Damiano B. Centola brings these voices into a single, urgent conversation.The result is neither a dry academic treatise nor a simplistic devotional, but a deeply reasoned and powerfully lived meditation on identity, order, and sovereignty. From the rise of nations to the fragility of modern democracies, from the imago Dei to the banality of evil, from the biblical covenant to the resilience of a neighborhood during a Los Angeles blackout, Between Nations and the Kingdom moves with scholarly depth and pastoral warmth.You will discover:Why national identity can either bind a people together or drive them apart.How power, authority, and violence differ - and why confusing them leads to ruin.The biblical vision for a 'we' that transcends political, ethnic, and cultural divides.How crisis exposes - and refines - the foundations of our community and our soul.This is a book for readers who refuse to choose between rigorous thought and vibrant faith - for citizens of earthly nations who live with their eyes fixed on an eternal Kingdom.When the shaking comes - and it will - the question will not be whether the kingdoms of this world can stand. The question will be whether you are standing in a Kingdom that cannot be moved.
