Learn moreFramed as a captivating dialogue between Shane Claiborne, a progressive young evangelical, and Tony Campolo, a seasoned pastor and professor of sociology, Red Letter Revolution is a life-altering manifesto for skeptics and Christians alike.
Best-selling authors Shane Claiborne and Tony Campolo talk candidly about the life and teaching of Jesus and the wisdom he offers our fractured world. It is time to re-imagine the world and the way we liveāthe old patterns of politics, economics, and religion that arenāt working. Itās time for a new kind of Christianity. In Red Letter Revolution, best-selling authors Shane Claiborne and Tony Campolo take on the hardest issues facing our world. They show that Jesusā example is relevant and revolutionary and call us back to a Christianity that looks like him again. In this ambitious project, they mine the words of Jesusāthe āred lettersā of Scriptureāasking the simple question, āWhat if we lived out the stuff he said?ā
From the power in Washington to the poverty in rural towns to the broken systems everywhere else, the world is looking for salvation. But this salvation is not just for peopleās soulsāitās for schools, governments, churches, and families.
Red Letter Revolution is about politics, but itās fresh. Itās about theology, but itās real. Itās about economics, but itās interesting. Itās about Jesus, who longs to transform the world despite the embarrassing things his followers have done in his name. For conservatives and progressives, skeptics and believers, Red Letter Revolution undertakes the world-shaping mission to understand how Jesusā words could change everythingāif weād only give them a chance.
