God's Politics



Jim Wallis, editor of SoJo Magazine, just released a new book called "God's Politics: Why the right gets it wrong and left doesn't get it" - I just purchased it myself and am very excited to dive in. I found this excerpt from the book online (http://www.sojo.net/special/items/050210_GPch1.pdf) and it only served to fuel the desire to know more about how politics and faith do not need to collide and create a vacuum of hope, nor does the faithful Christian have to sit in the back seat while politicians drive us through issues like abortion, the death penalty, hunger, AIDS, and fair trade only to serve the greater needs of power and fame. It is indeed time to take our faith back.
