Justin Giboney: Love and Truth in the Public Square

If our politics are always “conservative” or “progressive,” then we might be outsourcing our beliefs to someone else.

Justin Giboney is an attorney and political strategist in Atlanta, Georgia, who leads the AND Campaign as its cofounder and president. The AND Campaign is a coalition of urban Christians who are determined to address the sociopolitical arena with the compassion and conviction of the gospel. He’s the coauthor of Compassion (&) Conviction with fellow AND Campaign leader Chris Butler and former colleague Michael Wear.

In this episode, Heather and Justin unpack the myth that Christians must be conservative to be biblical or progressive to be loving. Justin’s work is committed to challenging the way Christians view politics. What if our current political lenses aren’t biblical lenses? Justin wants to help Christians do the difficult work of holistically interrogating their political beliefs.

Says Heather, “This episode will leave you encouraged about how we can be both engaged citizens and faithful disciples.” Find Justin on Twitter @JustinEGiboney.
