Redeeming the World Instead of Preserving America – Bryant Martin

Americans are fascinated with politics. How can we engage our communities and neighbors in political topics while we hold to a faith tradition that embraces nonviolence and non-governmental participation? Bryant Martin tells how he was embarrassed about these beliefs in the past, and how he came to a clear understanding of serving society by engaging with it in nonpolitical ways. Bryant outlines ways we can serve our communities and engage well with political issues, while also being aware of the fallacy that America is a “Christian nation.”
