Progressives have been too silent about their faith, too hesitant to reach out to communities of faith, and too uneasy about revealing the faith-based foundations that support many of the policies they promote. William Garard Godwin seeks to reconnect the power of faith and the hope of progressive politics among a new generation of Americans that he calls "faithful progressives." A combination of political and biblical analysis, social criticism, and spiritual memoir, Blue America's God helps progressives think and talk about some of our nation's most controversial issues through the lens and language of faith. In this book, Godwin offers a powerful plan of action to illustrate how a progressive Democratic vision for the United States is not at odds with our country's diverse faiths, our Judeo-Christian moral tradition, or the Bible's core ethical teachings. This book vividly shows that progressive politics, when approached prayerfully, carefully, and open-mindedly, are aligned with the overarching themes of our major faith traditions: Love, Justice, Mercy, and Humility.
