Conventional wisdom suggests that religion and politics are two topics that are all but guaranteed to ruin a polite conversation. Perhaps, that has never been truer that in 21st century America. Yet, religion and politics are what the sermons in this book are about. Religion and politics are also undeniably what much of the Bible is about. Issues of peace, social justice and stewardship of Creation echo through the Biblical witness from the Prophets of Hebrew Scripture through Jesus’ life and teachings to the proclamation of the early Church. Written from a progressive Mainline Protestant perspective, these sermons encourage thoughtful readers to understand and assess the issues that divide us through the lens of the “Kingdom Correctness” that Jesus preached and lived.
