Catholics and Evangelicals for the Common Good
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Catholics and Evangelicals for the Common Good brilliantly weaves theological reflection with political and religious history to articulate the challenges now confronting both communities in the public square. Every essay acutely analyzes the present by way of turning our attention to the future. Dialogue is admirable, but social action is essential. Here are gathered doers of the word and not merely hearers. This volume offers not sound bites and slogans, but moral guidance and intellectual nourishment.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Wallis at his usual passionate and brilliant self: he will move you to examine your conscience and search your soul.”
History & Biography
“Lois Capps has written an eloquent and moving account of the lessons learned during her decades of distinguished public service both on and off Capitol Hill. Weaving together stories and Scripture, Keeping Faith in Congress is a testament to the importance of balancing conviction with an open heart and an open mind. And it is a reminder of how sorely needed Capps’s model of 'servant leader' is in our current political moment.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“An inspiration and a call to action. Silence Can Kill is a guidebook for changing the world and an urgent invitation to take on the task.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“We buy a lot of Bibles but don't read them. We occasionally quote the Bible but mostly for our own immediate purposes. Ken Briggs, one of our most thoughtful religious writers, calls us to a new engagement with Scripture by offering a richly persuasive case for why the Bible still matters.”
The Political Teachings of Jesus
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Tod Lindberg has performed something of a miracle: At a moment when the role of faith in politics is a hugely divisive matter, he offers a clear, careful and exciting analysis of Jesus’ political teachings that will earn this book respect and attention across all our political boundaries. And Lindberg reminds us that so many of the moral commitments we take to be ‘modern’ and ‘advanced’ owe far more than we realize to the power of the ideas offered by a man of humble origins from Nazareth.”
World Religions
“Rabbi Caryn Broitman is an inspiring, thoughtful and learned voice for justice rooted in a tradition that has made prophesy central to its purpose and practice. With eloquence and energy, she reminds us that the Hebrew Bible speaks to us still as a call for 'commpassion and repentance, love, and liberation.' This timely reminder is a blessing, and so is her invitation to humility and curiosity.”
