The book explores the theological and political divides among Christians, focusing on two social science models: Nurturant and Authoritative. Nurturants emphasize empathy and cooperation, while Authoritatives prioritize obedience and law. These differing core values shape distinct views on issues like atonement, salvation, and social policies. Highlighting Jesus as a model of the Nurturant way, the text argues that this approach fosters better mental and spiritual health and creates stronger communities, contrasting it with the historical competition of these two perspectives.
