Mark your calendar, especially if you live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Jim Wallis, founder and editor of Sojourners magazine, is coming to town!
You may know Jim best from his latest book, God’s Politics: Why the Right Gets it Wrong and the Left Doesn’t Get It. Now a New York Times Bestseller, the book is shaping discussions across the nation.
Jim spoke at our annual urban ministries prayer event a few years ago. He is a great speaker with a vital and relevant message.
As I said, he will be in Dallas on Thursday evening, October 27 to speak at an event being hosted by King of Glory Lutheran Church (located on LBJ Freeway and Hillcrest Road in North Dallas). Central Dallas Ministries is a sponsor of the event that begins at 7:00 p.m.
If you need tickets, I have plenty and for you they will be free!
Spread the word about the event. Call (214.823.8710 ext 16) or email me (ljames@cdm-hope.org) and I’ll get your tickets to you. Please include your mailing address in any message you leave me.
Jim has a message that needs to be heard, considered and discussed in as many forums as possible.
He is all about values.

I heard Wallis over at Harvard last spring, and he's well-worth going to see. What impressed me most was his sense of charity to those who disagree with him. He handled a fairly hostile questioner with far more grace than most speakers would. And even though some see him as all action and no theology, he has some theological muscle behind his program that doesn't necessarily come out in his writings (as they're addressed to a broader, non-theological audience).
No thanks.
I might come if they had Laura Ingraham on with him. She had him for lunch on her radio show. She dared to ask him the tough questions that the mainstream media won't.
