Over the past 30 years, while the Religious Right has developed into one of the most powerful forces in American politics, the Religious Left - despite having a rich historical tradition of leading social change in the United States - has been unable to develop into a movement with the scale or coherence of the Religious Right. Dispatches from the Religious Left is a groundbreaking and visionary collection that offers a progressive counter-voice to the Religious Right's dominance over the religious conversation in America.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. "If he were alive today, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. would remind us that 'We are the leaders we have been waiting for.' Consider Dispatches from the Religious Left your briefing book on how and why it is important to be a 'courageous leader' in these challenging times."--Robert Edgar, President, Common Cause, former General Secretary of the National Council of Churches "The Progressive faith community has been an essential component of American social movements through our history.

This excellent volume illuminates many facets of where we are today, and calls for further, dynamic revitalization, urging us on to our highest aspirations for a just society.
