Description

About the Book

A leading conservative thinker explores the political principles of Christ's life and teachings as revealed in the New Testament--and their implications for the modern American political landscape.

From the Back Cover

Longtime political analyst and commentator Tod Lindberg goes beyond punditry to address how Jesus's words and teachings--once a radical set of ideas--have come to define our concept of government and our vision for society.

Review Quotes

"Jesusian politics dare to propose an ideal to be striven for: a world without enemies--a vision that Europe is at last, after centuries of turmoil, struggling to construct on its own territory. This book makes one think again, and more deeply." - --Michael Novak, author of Washington's God

"Jesusian politics dare to propose a world without enemies...This book makes one think again, and more deeply." - --Michael Novak, author of Washington's God

"Tod Lindberg has performed something of a miracle: At a moment when the role of faith in politics is a hugely divisive matter, he offers a clear, careful and exciting analysis of Jesus' political teachings that will earn this book respect and attention across all our political boundaries. And Lindberg reminds us that so many of the moral commitments we take to be 'modern' and 'advanced' owe far more than we realize to the power of the ideas offered by a man of humble origins from Nazareth." - E.J. Dionne, author of Why American's Hate Politics

"Lindberg offers a clear, careful, and exciting analysis of Jesus's political teachings." - E.J. Dionne, author of Why American's Hate Politics

"You will never read the Bible or hear a sermon the same way after reading The Political Teachings of Jesus." - --Anne-Marie Slaughter, author of The Idea That Is America

"A fascinating analysis..." - --Norman Podhoretz, author of The Prophets

"Whether you're a Republican, Democrat, independent, or even an agnostic, you will appreciate this book for its fairness and thoughtfulness." - --Paul Kengor, author of God and Ronald Reagan

"Tod Lindberg has given us a plausible, this-worldly Jesus...It's a significant achievement--bold, thoughtful, and beautifully written." - --Andrew Ferguson, author of Land of Lincoln
