Red Letter Christians: A Citizen’s Guide to Faith and Politics

Red Letter Christians: A Citizen’s Guide to Faith and Politics

Tony Campolo. Ventura, Calif.: Regal Books, 2008. 256 pp. (Hardback).

In this masterpiece, readers will discover several subjects including “why Jesus is neither a Republican or a Democrat,” “the problem of partisan politics” and “red-letter Christian’s voting guide.”

Campolo, a prolific author, is an ordained Baptist minister and professor emeritus of sociology at Eastern University in St. David’s, Pa. Quite significant is Camplo’s assertion that 2,000 verses of Scripture call us to express love and justice for the poor and oppressed. Campolo is quite prophetic in his concern.
