Jesus for President
June 30th, 2008 by Marc A. Pitman
A friend just emailed me this great CNN article about how young evangelicals don’t fit the “evangelical” stereotype. Or a political party.
These two guys are out promoting a book Jesus for President: Politics for Ordinary Radicals. But this is more than selling books. Here’s a quote from CNN:
Back on stage [Shane] Claiborne takes the crowd through a multimedia presentation.
“With the respectability and the power of the church comes the temptation to prostitute our identity for every political agenda.”
It’s nice to see evangelicals questioning the lock-stock-and-barrel acceptance of partisan politics.
