Authors: Shane Claiborne & Chris Haw
I must say this is a fantastic book. I have been a big reader of Shane and own all of his books. He has a wonderful way of working through the bible to explain how life is able to apply to our lives. I find this book to be very inspiring and full of wisdom. I'm not much for politics, but this book sheds a new light on the way we look at politics. If we look at politics through the eye of Christ we see how the empire is the force that works againest us. It no longer is a Christian nation when the values of Christ are no longer present and you'll soon find the there is a third way out of everything. You learn another world is possible and that war is not the way to fix our problem. We learn how to change the world that it is no longer the governments responsibility to change things but ours. And we can do it without them. This book is for the young and the old, but mostly anyone who wants to know what Jesus has to say about the Empire that we call the US of A. We see how Rome and the US is not so far apart and how to respond in a way that honors Christ. For anyone who is a Christian, but gets to caught up in election time. This book is for you. May God open our eyes to the powers that be. Jesus for President!
