More about the book:
In "Christ in Crisis" Jim Wallis provides a path of spiritual healing and solidarity to help us heal the divide separating Americans today. Building on Reclaiming Jesus the declaration he and other church leaders wrote in May 2018 to address Americas current crisis Wallis argues that Christians have become disconnected from Jesus and need to revisit their spiritual foundations. By pointing to eight questions Jesus asked or is asked, Wallis provides a means to measure whether we are truly aligned with the moral and spiritual foundations of our Christian faith.
Christians have often remembered, re-discovered, and returned to their obedient discipleship of Jesus Christboth personal and publicin times of trouble. Its called coming home, Wallis reminds us. While he addresses the dividing lines and dangers facing our nation, the religious and cultural commentators focus isnt politics; its faith.
As he has done throughout his career, Wallis offers comfort, empathy, and a practical roadmap. "Christ in Crisis" is a constructive field guide for all those involved in resistance and renewal initiatives in faith communities in the post-2016 political context.
