Discover America's four political religions and why Jesus is crashing them all! The political divide is growing. Each side demands ultimate allegiance that's incompatible with the Christian faith. The fervency with which so many advocate their political ideals is best described in religious terms. Four political "religions" are rising in America:
- Religion of Progress: "We can change the world."
- Religion of Responsibility: "Pull yourself up by your bootstraps."
- Religion of Identity: "Live your truth."
- Religion of Security: "Good fences make good neighbors." In this insightful, nonpartisan work, a respected pastor first exposes the religious nature of these political movements and how they compete for our loyalty to Jesus, and then prescribes ten political commandments for Christlike engagement. Fortunately, Jesus is the ultimate Party Crasher. And he is disrupting politics-as-usual to invite us into a bold vision capable of redeeming our partisan divide.
