The Call to Conversion by Jim Wallis
This work examines two fundamental questions Christians must answer: what is the nature of authentic conversion today, and how can people heed the biblical call to conversion today? Jim Wallis offers a new social vision grounded in the reality of the gospel of Jesus Christ, outlines a direction for action that seeks to establish justice for the poor and reclaims the Christian responsibility for making peace. The key to this biblical witness is Jim Wallis' vision of a revitalized Christian community deeply rooted in worship and in the practice of the spiritual disciples.Jim Wallis is a pastor, author, activist, preacher, and teacher. He is a best-selling author, a organizer of faith-inspired organizations for justice and peace outside and inside politics, a public theologian in a secular world, a well-known speaker in the United States and overseas, and an international media commentator on ethics and public life. He founded and leads Sojourners, a journal, organization, and global network dedicated to putting faith into action for social justice. Wallis is the author of more than ten books, including The (Un)Common Good, God's Politics, and The Great Awakening, both of which were New York Times bestsellers. He's written for major newspapers, contributes to prominent internet news networks on a regular basis, and appears on a variety of television and radio networks.
Wallis has also taught at Harvard University and Georgetown University. He is married to Joy Carroll, one of the first women to be ordained as a priest in the Church of England, and is the father of two teenage boys, Luke and Jack, as well as a Little League baseball coach for many years.
