How Would Jesus Vote
$13.99
If Jesus were a voting man, living in twenty-first century America, on what side of our many political issues would he stand?
As we approach another election year, we hear politicians on both sides of the aisle as well as religious leaders of every stripe claim to know-with absolute certainty-where Jesus and Christianity stand on their favorite issues. Jesus, of course, would vote exactly as they do. He would most certainly stand where they stand and fight for and against what they do. End of discussion. But would he?
This book presents the values of Jesus and the Scripture in a way that challenges simple conclusions about complex issues. Examining some of the most contentious political topics of our time in light of Scripture and the teachings of Jesus, the end goal of this book is not to promote a particular point of view but to objectively portray what the Bible says on political and cultural topics. Author Darrell Bock intends to provoke a different kind of conversation-a conversation where differences are heard and respect is shared, a conversation where we can disagree passionately yet dialogue peacefully and well.
Examining the weighty issues of our political and cultural world, author Darrell Bock looks at racial conflict, economics, poverty, health care, immigration, gun control, foreign policy, war, education, sexuality, abortion, and more through the teachings of Jesus and biblical teachings as a whole.
