During your interview, Ronald J. Sider will discuss the cutting edge moral issues and stands in the political arena from an evengelical perspective.

Book Name: Toward an Evangelical Public Policy: Political Strategies for the Health of the Nation

Author: Ronald J. Sider and Diane Knippers, eds.

Publication Date: Feb. 2005

 <>Description: An evangelical call to civic responsibility

While evangelicals are becoming an increasingly viable force in American public life, too often their political agendas have lacked clarity, consistency, and Christlikeness. Catholicism has a rich history of papal reflections and directions, and Protestantism has its own traditions from which to draw, but evangelicals lack responsible approaches to their own earthly citizenship. The result has been an ineffective role in shaping civic debate.

Toward an Evangelical Public Policy will help conscientious Christians carefully develop a biblical framework that guides their political involvement. The editors show how to combine political philosophy with Scripture, tradition, and sophisticated study of the contemporary mindset by drawing together contributions from:
