Theology, politics, justice, and the radical teachings of Jesus — written for modern progressives.

Blessed are the Peacemakers? Not according to many Americans - who are embracing a Culture of War, yet calling themselves devout followers of Christ. Have we become like the Pharisees? Do we side with and idolize the ultra rich, the ultra elite, the pro-war radical right wing "Christian" conservatives? What do you think?

Jesus' most famous sermon wasn't just spiritual guidance — it was a radical call for economic and social justice that challenged Roman imperial power.

Luke's version is unambiguous — "Blessed are the poor," not "poor in spirit." Jesus meant material poverty.
