N.T. Wright and Michael F. Bird, Jesus and the Powers
Logos & Lore — November 2025.
Framing
“Should Christians be politically withdrawn, avoiding participation in politics to maintain their prophetic voice and to keep from being used as political pawns? Or should Christians be actively involved, seeking to utilize political systems to control the levers of power? In Jesus and the Powers, N.T. Wright and Michael F. Bird call Christians everywhere to discern the nature of Christian witness in fractured political environments.”1
