Mark Labberton on Christ Alone, Neighbor Love, and Rededicate 250
On this episode of the Jim Wallis Podcast, Jim Wallis speaks with Mark Labberton, pastor, theologian, and author of The Dangerous Act of Loving Your Neighbor, about what it means for Christians to say Christ Alone in a time of political pressure, Christian nationalism, and public religion.Recorded on the eve of Rededicate 250: A National Jubilee of Prayer, Praise & Thanksgiving, the conversation asks whether public rededication language reflects the teachings of Jesus or drifts into civil religion, false loyalty, and the temptation to bless the nation without naming its failures.Jim and Mark also discuss: Why loving your neighbor is costly, Why evangelical Christians should resist tribalism and worship of nation or party, and Why the church must become a “communion of unlike people” if it is to remain faithful to the gospel.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
