Product description...

Why is it that more than 80% of self-identified evangelical Christians not only voted for Donald Trump in the 2016 election, but also applaud his intention to build a wall at the border between the United States and Mexico? Why do they favor a repeal of Obamacare that would reduce or eliminate medical insurance for millions of Americans, and celebrate a restructuring of the tax code that would benefit the richest among us, while penalizing the poorest? Why do they seem not to care about the proliferation of guns, or that children in some schools are denied lunch because their parents cannot pay? This book asks four prominent evangelicals to explain how they’re able to take these positions, given that the Jesus we know from the Gospels healed the sick, fed the hungry, welcomed the stranger and the marginalized, preached good news to the poor and condemned the accumulation of wealth. The request to Robert Jeffers, Jerry Falwell, Jr., Rick Perry and Franklin Graham in these pages is quite simple: show me your Jesus. If the stances they have publicly taken are consistent with proclaiming Jesus as Lord, then explain how that is so.
