Red Letter Christians A Citizen's Guide to Faith & Politics By Tony Campolo 256 pages Over the past couple of decades, evanglical Christians have tended to be associated with the religious right and the most conservative positions of the Republican Party. Rebelling against this designation are those who prefer to be called Red Letter Christians. Those desiring to live out the red letters of Jesus' words in the New Testament, transcend partisan politics and concentrate on issues viewed as critical moral and biblical values - poverty, the environment, advancing peace, stronger families & ethical living. Into this arena of thought steps Tony Campolo, the powerful evangelist known for his passionate and prophetic sharing of the radical message of Jesus. No matter where you fall on the political spectrum, Campolo's exploration of many of the hot-button issues facing evangelicals will make you think, pray, and act. |
