Buku Jesus For President (Shane Claiborne & Chris Haw)

 Jesus for President is a radical manifesto to awaken the Christian  political imagination, reminding us that our ultimate hope lies not in  partisan political options but in Jesus and the incarnation of the  peculiar politic of the church as a people “set apart” from this world.  In what can be termed lyrical theology, Jesus for President poetically  weaves together words and images to sing (rather than dictate) its  message. It is a collaboration of Shane Claiborne’s writing and stories,  Chris Haw’s reflections and research, and Chico Fajardo-Heflin’s art  and design. Drawing upon the work of biblical theologians, the lessons  of church history, and the examples of modern-day saints and ordinary  radicals, Jesus for President stirs the imagination of what the Church  could look like if it placed its faith in Jesus instead of Caesar. A  fresh look at Christianity and empire, Jesus for President transcends  questions of “Should I vote or not?” and “Which candidate?” by thinking  creatively about the fundamental issues of faith and allegiance. It’s  written for those who seek to follow Jesus, rediscover the spirit of the  early church, and incarnate the kingdom of God.
