Reseña del libro "Getting on Message: Challenging the Christian Right From the Heart of the Gospel (en Inglés)"

In the 2004 election, 80 percent of those who claimed moral values was the most important issue affecting their vote cast their ballots for Bush, as did 63 percent of frequent churchgoers. Since then, the Religious Right has continued to cement an association between Christian and moral values and conservative policies. Getting On Message challenges this association from the very heart of the Christian tradition. These readable and incisive essays use biblical framing to discern the personal and social ethics that truly embody Christian values in the contemporary world. Marilynne Robinson discusses the link between personal holiness and a generous spirit Garret Keizer looks at the growing wealth/class divide from a Christian perspective Rev. Heidi Neumark examines hospitality as a core Christian value Rev. Chloe Breyer explores a justice criterion for womens decisions on abortion Rev. Bill Sinkford asks what really constitutes a God-approved marriage and familyGetting On Message is a book for clergy, for politically active people of faith, and for progressive organizers and strategists who want to learn how to talk to religious believers about the values they share.Rev. Peter Laarman is executive director of Progressive Christians Uniting, codirector of the Center for Prophetic Renewal in Los Angeles, and a board member of Faith Voices for the Common Good. Before moving to California, Laarman served as senior minister of New Yorks historic Judson Memorial Church. He worked for twenty years as a strategist and communications specialist in the labor movement prior to training for the ministry.
