35 | A Christian Political Commitment

To follow Jesus is to engage a political project: It is to submit
to Jesus as he establishes his upside-down Kingdom by his Spirit
through the Church.


Anthony and Blaine lay out a few core convictions for a style of
political engagement that is anchored in the teachings of Jesus.
Allegiance. Enemy love. Prayer. There is no more challenging,
satisfying, and liberating way to minister to the life of the
community than by embracing the foundational commandments of
Jesus.
