Evangelicals and the environment 8 August, 2007

Interesting story today in the Washington Post about pastor Joel C Hunter of the Northland (Mega)Church in Longwood, FL. This is the guy who was appointed to lead the Christian Coalition and then resigned when he realized he was going to be blocked from expanding the group’s horizon beyond abortion, stem cells and gay marriage.
Hunter is a great example of an extremely conservative Evangelical Christian leader who is nevertheless taking seriously progressive stands on immigration, health care, poverty, war and the environment. If you’re interested in taking a closer look at this movement of “revolutionary evangelicals,” check out the Washington Post article and the Joel Hunter links below.
