Jesus for President -- Politics for Ordinary Radicals

Value:  $17     Starting Bid:  $12
























Autographed copy of Jesus For President:  Politics for Ordinary Radicals (by Shane Claiborne and Chris Haw) -- signed by Shane

Donated by  Shane Claiborne, founder of The Simple Way in Kensington

Jesus for President is a radical manifesto to awaken the Christian political imagination, reminding us that our ultimate hope lies not in partisan political options but in Jesus and the incarnation of the peculiar politic of the church as a people “set apart” from this world. In what can be termed lyrical theology, Jesus for President poetically weaves together words and images to sing (rather than dictate) its message. It is a collaboration of Shane Claiborne’s writing and stories, Chris Haw’s reflections and research, and art and design.
