Politics in Theology? With Mike Bird

Dr. Michael Bird returns to The Stone Chapel Podcast to talk with David Capes about his recent book, co-authored with Tom Wright, entitled Jesus and the Powers: Christian Political Witness in an Age of Totalitarian Terror and Dysfunctional Democracies.

Bird and Wright teamed up to write about politics, the kingdom of God, and theology in light of the polarized nature of western societies. They make a compelling case that followers of Jesus need actually to follow Jesus in his teachings about the kingdom of God as an antidote to the competitive and destructive nature of politics these days.

If you think Jesus had more to say about life than how to get to heaven when you die, this is a book you need to read and study. It will lead you deeper into Scripture.
