Title: Proclaiming the Gospel is not an American political statement
Review: Love him or hate him Dr. Tony Campolo is not afraid to speak his mind. In Is Jesus a Republican or a Democrat?: And 14 Other Polarizing Issues Tony Campolo shows how many Christians in America identify their Christian beliefs with the political party they have individually embraced. This book covers everything from homosexual rights, to abortion, and how Christians view the poor and what should be done by Christians for the poor. If I have a criticism it is not my disagreement with Dr. Campolo on the issues he addresses, but I think he is predisposed to a certain kind of naivity in what he sometimes professes to believe. This was the same complaint I expressed in my review of another of Dr. Campolo's books Speaking My Mind : The Radical Evangelical Prophet Tackles the Tough Issues Christians Are Afraid to Face. This book is a good read and certainly worthy of discussion.
Is the review positive or negative?
