Linda Allen May 1, 2005 We Shall Go Singing Linda Allen May 1, 2005 “God’s politics is therefore never partisan or ideological. But it challenges everything about our politics. God’s politics reminds us of the people our politics always neglect —- the poor, the vulnerable, the left behind. .....God’s politics reminds us of the creation itself, a rich environment in which we are to be good stewards, not mere users, consumers, and exploiters. And God’s politics pleads with us to resolve the inevitable conflicts among us...without the terrible cost and consequences of war.” — from God's Politics: Why the Right Gets It Wrong and the Left Doesn't Get It, by Jim Willis
