Harper and Innes provide one the best examples of the fact that being evangelical comes with no particular political ideology. If you're a serious Christian Left, Right and Christ will make you think deeply about why you believe what you believe about social justice.

An honest and daring conversation about the toughest political issues facing Christians today. We need to replace the shallow and polarized talking points currently overrunning the public square with thoughtful and nuanced discussion. Left, Right and Christ is a step forward in that direction. This type of constructive dialog across the political spectrum is both necessary and Left, Right and Christ demonstrates that it is possible.
—Ben Lowe Author and Activist
Lisa and David take an incredibly brave step with their new book by writing honestly and openly about some of the most hot-button issues of our generation. They debunk the myth that Evangelical Christians have one political perspective and present compelling Bible-based arguments from both sides of the political aisle. Their positions, which are sure to cause some debate in the Christian community, illustrate the complex nature of faith in the public square. Left, Right & Christ breaks new ground by laying out a substantive and civil debate about our nation's most controversial political issues. For those who seek to understand how people of faith can agree to disagree, I highly recommend this book.
I am tired of partisanship in both church and society. It seems that we find it impossible to listen and hear one another. Harper and Innes not only represent two different views about the role of government but they represent two very different social and familial backgrounds. This makes for a welcome dialog that will surely benefit fair-minded readers of this well-conceived book.
