Were you aware he was a part of that during the Bush/ Quayle campaign in 1988? his perspective is pretty distant from that now, as one can see from this clip or from either of his books.

Claiborne a man of God. It must of been cool to work with Mother Theresa.

[homelesspoet]

I believe the church should stick with the gospel for the purpose of seeing people saved, instead of trying to mix politics in with it. I'll be honest I don't really think their is a left or right, i think it's to side of the same coin with the same agenda. This whole left and right paradigm is false and is diving christians and the church world.

[thayerave]

remember delirious? came from the UK.

tobuildahome, Whilst I was living at the Eden project, I had a friend who's brother and friends were doing a similar thing in Toxteth, trying to live as one of the community and bring God's love and community to one of the poorest localities in Britain. If you're interested I'll try and find their number and e-mail it you.

[tobuildahome]

really? ive heard of eden around don't know much about it. im currently in liverpool.

have you guys got a website or anything?

[mrfilanges]

message to tobuildahome: it's happening here in the UK, you just have to seek it out a little bit. I was a part of the Eden project in Manchester for 3 years and now am a part of a group of christians trying to live as a community of love in a poorer area of Bristol. Where in the UK are you?

[FantomePhanatic]

thank you for saying that!

[billdozier78]

tob the key is take to the street what you read become active in your community go to hyde park love on people show them the real Jesus you can start a pack of ordinary radicals in the UK Ask God for divine wisdom as far as how to do this in your area.

[pieceustogether]

He wouldn't justify them. If you read some of what he's written, he clearly calls both liberals and conservatives out on the things they've gotten wrong. But he does it with love.

[tobuildahome]

In the summer i read, 'The irrestistable recvolution' and was completely inspired, obviously like many who have read the book.

But i live in the UK and there isnt much avalible or going on that i know of here which is sad because it seems in the US there is alot happening with the Ordinary Radicals Documentary etc...you should preview your film in the UK!
