"Laboring in the Lord’s Vineyard"-- A Review of C. M. Snarr's All You That Labor from the Englewood Review of Books

The living wage campaigns in many cities in the United States presents an opportuinity to contemplate the role of religion, and specifically Christian faith, in a social movement.  In Melissa Snarr's new book All You That Labor this contemporary movement for social justice receives an assessment by a scholar who is also an activist in the movement. For those who wish to think about the manner that religion enables a social movement, this book is well worth the read as it both insightfully describes the living wage movement and asks some significant questions about the movement.  I published a review of Snarr's book in the Engelwood Review of Books and am sharing a link to the review here:
