Title

Notes

Who are our neighbours? What is our responsibility to them? With interviews from inner-city Philadelphia, PA and the coal mining region of Kentucky, this video tells how MCC works with communities struggling with poverty in the United States. This video examines ways Mennonites have spoken to government over the years on issues of international and domestic policy. It explores how advocacy grows from service and how the MCC U.S. Washington Office encourages Mennonites to work on a political level in addition to meeting people's immediate needs.

Also on this DVD:

In the Halls of Power "Some Christians would not be comfortable with the idea of a Chrisitan witness to the state. What's your response?" John Rempel, former MCC representative to the United Nations, answers questions like these in a conversation with Eileen Klassen Hamm.

Using Iraq as a case study, the video explores the Biblical and theological foundations for if, when and how Christians should speak to government. Rempel brings a Canadian perspective to this discussion. 57 minutes. Includes study guide. Recommended time for viewing and discussion is 2 to 5 sesssions.
