About this product
Product Information
NOW A NEW YORK TIMES AND A USA TODAY BESTSELLER "Everyone who claims to be 'Christian' or else claims to be upset by 'Christianity' needs to read this book, especially politicians using people's supposed faith for their own ends." --Margaret E. Atwood "Jim Wallis calls the nation to grow up and he calls us all to fight the love battle to save the soul of America." --From the Foreword by Eddie S. Glaude, Jr. A major new work by the New York Times bestselling author, arguing that the answer to bad religion is true faith that will help refound democracy It is time says Jim Wallis, to call out genuine faith--specifically the "Christian" in White Christian Nationalism--inviting all who can be persuaded to reject and help dismantle a false gospel that propagates white supremacy and autocracy. We need-to raise up the faith of all of us, and help those who are oblivious, stuck, and captive to the ideology and idolatry of White Christian Nationalism that is leading us to such great danger. Wallis turns our attention to six iconic texts at the heart of what genuine biblical faith means and what Jesus, in the gospels, has called us to do. It is time to ask anew: do we believe these teachings or not? This book isn't only for Christians but for all faith traditions, and even those with no faith at all. When we see a civic promotion of fear, hate, and violence for the trajectory of our politics, we need a civic faith of love, healing, and hope to defeat it. And that must involve all of us-religious or not. Learning to practice a politics of neighbor love will be central to the future of democracy in America. And more than ever, the words of Jesus ring, "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

"Jim Wallis once again demonstrates why he is America's prophet and moral philosopher. His latest book speaks to the idolatry of a Christian faith baptized in whiteness and false notions of supremacy. A must read for anyone concerned about the future of this republic called America. " -- Otis Moss III, senior pastor, Trinity United Church of Christ, Chicago, Illinois "Using religion to bless hate is the supreme blasphemy. If you don't believe that, read this book. If you do, urge others to read the book. We need it." -- Garry Wills, author, What the Gospels Meant "An urgent, necessary and essential book by one of the most important Christian voices of our time. Christianity is in danger of being hijacked for purposes that would subvert not only the longstanding traditions of Christian social teaching but, more fundamentally, the Gospel itself." -- Rev. James Martin, SJ, Editor at Large, America Media "Almost twenty years ago, in his book God's Politics, my friend Jim Wallis prophetically called people of faith to look at the realities in our nation through a radically different lens and challenge the unjust structures of racism all around us. Now, in his new book, False White Gospel , he rightly notes that the need for justice and equity is greater than ever and implores us to reclaim the Jesus of the Gospels in the face of the White Christian Nationalism that threatens our democracy, our faith, our common life. Read this book...and be part of the desperately needed change." -- The Most Rev. Michael B. Curry, Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church, author of Love is the Way "Thank God for Pastor Jim Wallis. As a Jew and a Rabbi, I am comforted and inspired by this book. Pastor Wallis calls Christians to their conscience and all people to action: live and breathe ancient wisdom that call us to see the divinity in every human, overcome racism and bigotry, and be the multiracial, interfaith democracy America aspires to be." --Rabbi Jonah Dov Pesner, Director, Religious Action Center, SVP, Union for Reform Judaism "Jim Wallis is a national treasure. In this powerful new book, he focuses our attention on the pernicious problem of American racism, but more importantly he inspires us to never give up hope on the great promise of American pluralism." -- Eboo Patel, Founder and President of Interfaith America; author of We Need To Build "The prophetic voice of Jim Wallis is never more welcome or more needed than it is now; his voice is always reliable, well informed, and emitting great moral passion. In this book Wallis continues his critical assessment of our current social context. At the same time--but without any confusion--he sees that White Nationalism is a distortion of democracy, and a profound Christian heresy in which the good truth of the Gospel is mobilized to nefarious idolatrous ends. Wallis's wheelhouse is biblical faith. He sees that Genesis 1 offers "a theology of democracy," and he takes the parable of Matthew 25 as the "final test of discipleship. He insists simply that the truth be told about our common pathology and about the deep claim of the Gospel. Along the way, his riff on "woke" in the New Testament is worth the price of the book. This is Wallis at his courageous best; he is the real thing; attention must be paid." .-- Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary, "Jim Wallis once again demonstrates why he is America's prophet and moral philosopher.

Adam Russell Taylor, president, Sojourners, author of A More Perfect Union "The prophetic voice of Jim Wallis is never more welcome or more needed than it is now; his voice is always reliable, well informed, and emitting great moral passion.
