Summary:
Since when did believing in God and having moral beliefs make you pro-war, pro-rich, and exclusively pro-Republican? And since when do promoting and pursuing a progressive cultural agenda with a concern for economic protection, healthcare, and educational opportunity mean you had to put faith in God apart?
God’s Politics offers a clarion contact to create both our religious communities and our authorities more accountable to key ideals of the prophetic spiritual tradition — that is, make sure they are pro-justice, about God’s Politics pro-peace, pro-environment, pro-equality, and pro-family (without building scapegoats of single moms or gays). Our biblical trust and religious traditions simply don’t allow us as a nation to continue to disregard the poor and marginalized, deny racial justice, tolerate the ravages of war, or turn from the human rights of these manufactured in the picture of God. These are the beliefs of love and justice, reconciliation, and community that Jesus taught and that are in the core of what most of us believe, Christian or not really. Jim Wallis inspires us to carry our political leaders and policies responsible by integrating our deepest moral convictions into our nation’s open public life.
