Progressive Evangelical Jim Wallis Agrees Debt Is Moral Issue
In an interview with The Christian Post, Wallis, CEO of Sojourners, asserted that the Christian anti-poverty coalition, Circle of Protection, which he is a member of, has been misrepresented by another Christian group, Christians for a Sustainable Economy (CASE), as endorsing a “blanket defense” of government programs for the poor and not considering the national debt as a moral issue.
Regarding any future dialogue with CASE, Wallis remarked, “Let's be honest and specific, and, of course, civil.”
