Bureaucrats in Babylon: Biblical Guidance for the Christian Public Administrator

By Christopher S. Horne

Bureaucrats in Babylon is a guide for Christian public administrators and students preparing for careers in public administration. Drawing on core Christian doctrines and biblical examples, like the lives of Daniel and Joseph, this book addresses questions faced by Christians working in government: How should Christian public administrators understand the purpose of government and their role in it? Should our work look different than our unbelieving coworkers'? Should we favor Christianity somehow? Should we seek to evangelize our coworkers and the people we serve? Should we subvert policies we believe are anti-Christian? Should we work toward a Christian society? How can Christian beliefs make us better coworkers and public servants? How can our work make us more faithful Christians? With biblical sure-footedness in answering these questions, readers will be better prepared to administer government as God intends: As his servants working for the good of the world he created.
