Resources from May 2

So this morning we had a great discussion (thank you Dave Dillon). And as usual, I took too much time, and had to chop things out as I went along. I hurriedly mentioned a couple resources as place to begin the journey of learn what we can about faith and our political views. Here are the books I mentioned:

God's Politics: Why the Right Gets It Wrong and the Left Doesn't Get It, Jim Wallis
Red Letter Christians: A Citizens Guide to Faith and Politics, Tony Campolo
The Myth of a Christian Nation: How the Quest for Political Power Is Destroying the Church, Gregory Boyd

If you're not much of a reader, here are a couple video links worth exploring:

The Myth of a Christian Nation (Part 1 of an interview with Gregory Boyd and Charlie Rose)
God and Politics 2008 (this is the longer version from which Sunday's clip was taken).

Feel free to add your thoughts, comments, questions, and suggestions below.
