When Did Jesus Become Republican?: Rescuing Our Country and Our Values from the Right-- Strategies for a Post-Bush America Hardcover - 2007

by Mark Ellingsen

When Did Jesus Become Republican" critically examines how modern American politics relate to Jesus vision of love and peace, questioning how right-wing Republican policies fit with the Christian values they espouse. Ellingsen shows how Democrats can embrace true Christian essentials in a way that authentically appeals not only to liberals, but to mainstream and conservative Christians. (Social Issues)


From the publisher

Despite the results of the 2006 elections, the coalition between Conservative politics and American Christians remains a dominant force in setting the American socio-cultural and political agenda. Ellingsen argues that until this coalition is diminished we will remain a politically conservative nation to the detriment of the poor, the marginalized, the middle class, and nations around the world, as well as to the detriment of the spiritual life in America's churches! Unlike previous books lamenting this Neo-Conservative-Christian coalition, Ellingsen offers the first account of the root (Puritan) causes for this coalition and provides readers with concrete strategies that we can adopt to challenge the tragic pact between so many committed Christians and political leaders that value business and global domination above all else.
