About this book

As Christians, we want to make a difference in this world. We want to have an impact not only on our immediate family and community, but on wider social issues. We want to protect the vulnerable and engage with the issues that really matter. But how?

This book shows us how wonderful, liberating and empowering it is to be made in God’s image. It will change how we see ourselves and other people.

Some will feel the call to run for office… others will roll up their sleeves and join the good work of non-profit ministry… and others might simply find little ways to incorporate this vision of human dignity ...

For years I thought that only the lives of elderly and medically fragile people were under assault—it’s what happens in a culture that insists you are "better off dead than disabled." Now, however, the human dignity of families living on every cul-de-sac in America is under attack as the very definition of "human being" is altered. No longer is this an academic issue; it’s impact is creeping into hospitals, schools, and businesses and our country is reeling. Daniel Darling’s book is a must-read for every Christian looking for a solid language and good argument to halt the further dismantling of the sanctity of all human life. I highly recommend it!

To understand and address the many issues of our cultural moment, from abortion to racial injustice, we’ve got to start with the Imago Dei. The Dignity Revolution helps us recover this biblical concept, pushing and pleading with us to apply it constantly and consistently.

Matt Chandler Lead Pastor of Teaching at The Village Church in Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas, and Executive Chaiman of the Acts29 Board.

We need a revolution in our country of committed followers of Jesus who are consistently living out the value of human dignity in how we speak, act, think, and relate to one another. I’m grateful this timely book offers us a way forward in having a consistent pro-life public witness that will have enduring impact on the church and society at large.

(Review written for 'The Dignity Revolution')

We might think that we believe in the dignity of every human being God has made, but sadly we all have blind spots and prejudices in this area. This book will help us to examine our attitudes and to ask God to give us more compassion and love for other human beings, regardless of age, race ability, contribution or track record. As a parent, this book has helped me to think hard about how to teach my children to value the dignity of every human life.
