Sojourners Leader & God's Politics

A while back, a friend gave me a copy of the book, "God's Politics" by Jim Wallis. Wallis is the leader of Sojourners, an organization founded in 1971, whose mission is

"to articulate the biblical call to social justice, inspiring hope and building a movement to transform individuals, communities, the church, and the world."
While reading the book and following the Sojourners web site, I soon discovered that Mr. Wallis' views on faith, politics, and culture were nearly identical to mine. On Saturday, Mr. Wallis was asked to deliver a weekly radio address that would be heard across the county. I encourage you to read a transcript of what he said. My opinion is that Mr. Wallis speaks about what most of us really believe in our hearts. Most of the time, we simply fail to express it on our own. You decide.
