Jesus for President Tour this Saturday
June 24, 2008
Hey, friends!
This Saturday, one of my personal idols, Shane Claiborne, is doing a book tour and rally at Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church (7 West 55th St), at 7pm. I’ve read the book and it’s quite good, challenging what following Jesus means in an era when just about every politician, corporation, and military is claiming to have God on its side. This is definitely and event worth attending.
From the press release:
Claiborne, Haw and his wife Cassie and dog Lucy, along with two other friends, will be sharing ideas and inspiring other to re-imagine politics. They’ll be traveling in a bus running on used vegetable oil. The tour will feature teaching from both authors as well as storytelling, art, music, and worship that provokes the political imagination. Each city will also include special guest musicians and performers.

Some of you might have noticed that the site disappeared for a little while and now it’s back but looking different.¬† Thanks to Sarah, we realized that a virus had infected our server and trashed our site!¬† It took a lot of work (and hours of sifting through two years of accumulated HTML by hand), but we managed to get every trace of it removed, and both Google and StopBadWare have declared our site to be virus-free.¬† Still, if you don’t have virus protection, you should definitely get some to prevent anything similar from happening to you.¬† Thanks for being patient with us!
