What should Christians do when allegiances to the state clash with personal faith? Amid all the buzz of politics and elections, "Jesus for President" is a refreshing reminder that our ultimate hope lies not in partisan political options but in the Jesus who gave his life for us. The authors also provide a valuable political context for Christ's life, reminding readers that Jesus did not preach the need to put God back into government, rather he urged his followers to live by a different set of rules altogether, to hold themselves apart as peculiar people. Politics for ordinary radicals who want to love the world into the kingdom of God.
