The Unseen Hand
The autobiography of Dr Michael Schluter CBE, coming April 2027
A lifetime of unexpected encounters, pioneering ideas, and international peacebuilding – and the unseen hand of God behind it all.
In The Unseen Hand, Dr Michael Schluter CBE looks back over a remarkable life of faith, ideas, entrepreneurship, and public service. From his early work as an applied economist in East Africa to international peace initiatives in and the establishment of The Jubilee Centre and other organisations to provide a clear, coherent biblical vision for our economy and society. Michael reflects on the people, opportunities, setbacks, and unexpected turns that have shaped his journey.
Looking back across decades, Michael traces the connections between experiences that, at the time, seemed unrelated. Encounters led to ideas. Ideas led to institutions. Institutions led to new initiatives. Initiatives led to peace and policy change. And, repeatedly, doors opened that could not have been anticipated when the journey began. This is not simply an autobiography of Michael's work and public achievements; it is a testimony to God's faithfulness through a lifetime of ideas, initiatives, and international work.
This is an inspirational story of an ordinary man equipped by God to do extraordinary things.
The Unseen Hand is due to be published in 2027 by Instant Apostle in partnership with The Jubilee Centre.
