Reduction of Christianity

Peter is pastor van de Reformed Heritage Church in Alabama. Hij heeft theologie gestudeerd op het Westminster Theologisch Seminarie. He has done much to explain and promote James Jordan's ideas about reading the Bible poetically. He continues to create valuable study guides which approach great literature with a Christian mindset. And he even wrote a delightful book of fairy tales. Hij heeft zijn eigen website.

Hij is auteur van verschillende boeken, waaronder het boek dat mij als eerste in aanraking bracht met christian reconstrucion, namelijk:

The Reduction of Christianity: Dave Hunt's Theology of Cultural Surrender, 1988 (samen met Gary DeMar)

The Kingdom and the Power: Rediscovering the Centrality of the Church

Against Christianity
 How could a Christian—an ordained minister, no less—be against not only Christianity, but theology, sacraments, and ethics as well? Yet that is the stance Peter Leithart takes in this provocative “theological bricolage.” Seeking to rethink evangelical notions of culture, church, and state, with a series of short essays, aphorisms, and parables, Leithart challenges the current dichotomies that govern both Christian and non-Christian thinking about church and state, the secular and the religious. But his argument isn't limited to being merely “against.” Leithart reveals a much larger vision of Christian society, defined by the stories, symbols, rituals, and rules of a renewed community—the city of God
