"An important strength of the book is its sensitive comparison of Catholic and Protestant articulations of the freedom of the church ... . David's book offers a number of starting points for the development of a cogent Protestant social theology on the question of religious liberty, and on many other questions as well ... . It would be rewarding to see some of that energy devoted to the ideas about Protestant distinctives that David so ably notes." (Allen Calhoun, Studies in Christian Ethics, Vol. 35 (2), May, 2022)
