This is week one of the Faith & Politics series here at Homebrewed Christianity. We hope this series does a little bit to contribute to a broadening of the political conversation within the church. Dr. Brueggemann begins by walking through his famous book “ The Prophetic Imagination ,” zeros in on the Prophet Jeremiah, and then explores connections between the biblical texts and our situation today. Walter discusses community organizers , the Daily Show , voting & politica l participation, and the “shabby avoidance of the issues” by George Stephanopoulos .
