Vote For Love: a (Virtual) Revival For Such A Time As This
by Red Letter Christians
On the four nights before the presidential election on November 5th, Red Letter Christians is hosting our final Red Letter Revival of this year to create a space for Christians who want to see love and justice at the center of our policies. Instead of solely condemning the way our faith is being manipulated for political gain this election season, we’re “practicing something better,” as our friend Richard Rohr says. There’s that old saying “Be the change you want to see in the world”… and we’re committed to being the change we want to see in the Church. And we need YOU.
One of the promises of Scripture is this – “perfect love casteth out fear.” We are standing on that promise, and raising the questions –
What would our country look like if love rather than fear was shaping our policies? What does it look like to love our neighbor as ourselves? What does that mean on immigration? Guns? Militarism? Poverty? Criminal justice? And more? What does love look like in public? How does loving my neighbor shape the way I think about policies that affect their lives?
Together, we’ll challenge the way Christianity is often distorted and co-opted for political agendas that do not center Jesus and the needs of the poor and vulnerable, those Christ called “the least of these.”
Mark your calendar for these powerful, life-giving events taking place on November 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, starting at 8 pm ET/5 pm PT. We’ll be broadcasting LIVE on all our platforms, and you won’t want to miss it!
