Summary, Etc. The legal aspects of Jesus' ministry was to use the law to secure the rights of people to hear the gospel and to set humanity free. Mauck shows how, for anyone who cares about their community, engagement with our legal system can play a huge role in the health of our communities and in cultivating a context where the gospel can flourish. In this challenging new world, we need to look anew at how Jesus taught, thought, and interacted with the legal establishment of his day.
