End the War in Afghanistan, Work for Peace

Sojourners believes it is time to bring the war in Afghanistan to an end.

There is no justifiable reason for continuing, but many reasons – human, financial and spiritual – to end. This page provides information, messaging and resources that enable Christians and the church to be a prophetic witness against continued U.S. military involvement in Afghanistan, and take responsibility for the consequences of war in our country and in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Christians for Immigration Reform

Christians for Comprehensive Immigration Reform

CCIR is a coalition of Christian organizations, churches, and leaders from across the theological and political spectrum, united in support of comprehensive U.S. immigration reform. We are working together to see fair and humane immigration reform enacted in Congress this year because we share a set of common moral and theological principles that compel us to love, care for, and seek justice for the stranger among us.

We call for an end to the unproductive, divisive, and fear-driven anti-immigrant rhetoric in the media, which has often castigated all immigrants, regardless of citizenship status, and derailed attempts at true reform. As Christian leaders who share the biblical values named below, we commit to fostering civil dialogue on immigration in our churches and in our communities. We call on President Barack Obama to provide the leadership necessary to move from the hateful rhetoric that has often characterized this national debate to action that will fix our broken immigration system. We look forward to working alongside the president to lead a new national conversation on immigration policy that reflects the best of our moral and civic values.

A Moral Economy: Faith, Values and the Federal Budget

In the face of historic deficits, our nation must make hard choices about how to balance needs and resources, while allocating both burdens and sacrifices. 

These tough (and unavoidable) decisions are economic, political, societal -- and moral.

As Christians, we believe the moral measure of the economy is how well the poorest, most vulnerable people are faring.

We look at each budget proposal from the bottom up – how it treats the folks Jesus called “the least of these” (Matthew 25:45). Widows. Orphans. The sick. The outcasts. The poor, marginalized and voiceless.

The Christian community has an obligation to help their voices be heard. And so we seek to join with like-minded souls in insisting that the programs that serve the most vulnerable in our nation and around the world be protected.
