Jesus For President

Jesus For President

Jesus For President

Politics For Ordinary Radicals

BY SHANE CLAIBORNE AND CHRIS HAW

Brief Description:
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 church as a people "set apart" from this world. Jesus for President is a collaboration of Shane Claiborne's writing and stories, Chris Haw's reflections and research, and Chico Fajardo-Heflin's art and design. Drawing upon the work of biblical theologians, the lessons of church history, and the examples of modern-day saints and ordinary radicals, Jesus for President stirs the imagination of what the Church could look like if it placed its faith in Jesus instead of Caesar.
