Focusing on the history of The Salvation Army, the book delves into the clericalisation process within the organization. It examines how leadership roles evolved from functional to more prestigious positions, culminating in the adoption of "ordination" for officers in 1978. The text highlights the pragmatic nature of The Salvation Army's ecclesiology, shaped more by sociological factors than theological discourse. Additionally, it explores the ongoing tension between the Army's egalitarian theology and its hierarchical military structure, reflecting diverse perspectives within the organization.
