TitleGod's Politics: Why the Right Gets it Wrong and the Left Doesn't Get It
NotesJim Wallis is a public theologian, nationally renowned preacher, faith-based activist, and the founder of Sojourners, a nationwide network of progressive Christians working for justice and peace.

While the Right in America has hijacked the language of faith to prop up its political agenda, the Left hasnxe2x80x99t done much better, largely ignoring faith and continually separating moral discourse and personal ethics from public policy. While the Right argues that Godxe2x80x99s way is their way, the Left pursues an unrealistic separation of religious values from morally grounded political leadership. The consequence is a false choice between ideological religion and soulless politics.

Godxe2x80x99s Politics offers a clarion call to make both our religious communities and our government more accountable to key values of the prophetic religious tradition.
