Environmental Racism & COVID-19

Lisa Sharon Harper
August 29, 2020
Global, Politics, Practical Justice
The best thing that we've known to do is to truly take on that Jeremiah 29. How do we seek the peace and prosperity of those who don't have the option to leave? They are stuck here, and they are struggling to just meet those basic provisional needs for themselves.

Fearfully and Wonderfully Made

Lisa Sharon Harper

Church Life, Immigration & Refugees, Politics
The Statue of Liberty is weeping at some of the viciousness of these policies. There are 92 scriptures that specifically talk about hospitality to the stranger.

We Go There: Abortion

Lisa Sharon Harper

Politics, Theology, Women
I theorized maybe this is not so much about being pro-life. If this is the only thing that is guiding your vote, maybe there is something deeper, a kind of a scapegoat mechanism happening.

Repentance and Redemption Inside the White Church

Lisa Sharon Harper
August 26, 2020
General, Politics, Theology
I began with Charles and asked him, “As a Choctaw man who follows Jesus on the Red Road, are there parallels that you see between the politics of the White church today and the politics of the White church in the days of the Choctaw removal?”

The National Town Hall on Evangelical Faith and Politics

Lisa Sharon Harper
August 24, 2020
General, Politics, Theology
Politics, however, is not synonymous with partisanship. Politics is the conversations we have with each other about the decisions we make about how the polis will be led.

Fred Martin pulled out his tongs, gripping a piece of red-hot steel, from the forge and turned to place it on the anvil. Camille Mays brought the ham...

For Christians, Is There ‘A Time to Hate?’

Craig M. Watts
August 13, 2020
General, Politics, Practical Justice
Hate is not found in any list of virtues. Yet, interestingly enough, we find scripture saying, “There is…a time to love, and a time to hate” (Ecclesiastes 3:8)

Federal Executions are One More Example of Trump Administration Overreach

Shane Claiborne

Peace & Nonviolence, Politics, Practical Justice
The United States has been steadily moving away from the death penalty. State by state, executions drop nearly every year to historic lows.

Imagining a Christian Resistance

Bjorn Philip Beer
August 4, 2020
General, Politics, Practical Justice
I became, in a way, an amateur scholar of fascist movements as I studied my family members involvement. What side would I be on? I always asked myself. 

Political Propaganda is Destroying Christianity

Stephen Mattson
July 29, 2020
Global, Politics, Theology
