A collection of provocative, inspiring, and thoughtful essays about
the place of politics in the pulpit. This book is the first
collection of essays to explore the question: is there room for
politics from the pulpit? In response to an increasingly polarized
society, preachers grapple with the call to witness a unifying
Truth in a world where truth appears subjective. While many
congregations respond positively to social and political themes in
sermons, others do not. Episcopalians in the conservative minority
may be uncomfortable with political-themed preaching, while liberal
Episcopalians demand a political message from the pulpit. What is a
preacher to do when the Episcopal Church is no more immune to the
temptation of polarization than the secular world? Contributors to
this volume serve in a variety of contexts and bring with them
their own distinct styles and visions. Anyone with an interest in
the practical implications addressing the current political climate
from the pulpit will find these essays provocative, inspiring, and
thoughtful. Contributors: Samuel G. Chandler, Sarah T. Condon, Alex
Dyer, Crystal J. Hardin, Ruthanna Hooke, Mark Jefferson, Russell J.
Levenson Jr., Ian Markham, Phoebe Roaf, Stephanie Spellers, Samuel
Wells
