We believe this upcoming election is the most important one in our lifetimes, one of the key crossroads in American history. And we believe that racism is and must be named as a core religious issue in this electoral season, which for us is a confessional season about affirming the image of God in each and every one of us. In this election, we believe that our commitment to a multi-racial democracy is literally on the ballot. And because of biblical and gospel commitments and how they apply to these fundamental moral choices, we also believe that faith is on the ballot. That is why we invite you to tune in to the Faith on the Ballot weekly sermon series every Saturday evening in October, featuring prominent voices at the intersection of faith and justice. Keep an eye out at faithontheballot.com for new sermons released each week. This Saturday, Oct. 3, Jim Wallis, Dr. Barbara Williams-Skinner, and Dr. Walter Kim will share their thoughts about racism as the central religious issue in this election season. Future weeks will focus on other critical faith issues that intersect with racism in America. We hope you will join us. Blessings, Jim Wallis, Founder, and Adam Russell Taylor, President-Elect |
In this blog, we'll look at how men and women at serving Jesus Christ both at home and abroad. We'll focus on how God is using their work to transform the lives of people all over the world.
