Did Jesus engage in politics?
Back in 2015, a liberal graduate of Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY became friends with a republican who emigrated from El Salvador as a teen. While they had very different political views, they shared a common belief that Christians were engaging in the American political realm in a decidedly un-Christlike way. That friendship blossomed into the Center for Christian Civics (CXC), a non-profit dedicated to helping Christians be better disciples of Jesus Christ while engaging in politics. Today, we’re joined by their liberal co-founder, Rick Barry, to talk about our polarized culture, how it’s affecting the church, and what CXC is doing to address this.
