[Dialogue] Request

[George R. Packard]

I just attended a book signing of Jim Wallis of Sojourns Magazine and Call
to Renewal Movement, who wrote the book God's Politics (NYTimes #5). As I
went through the line and had my copy of his book signed I gave a copy of
the new book, Bending History, to him. He had a twinge of recognition when I
pointed to Matthews name and mentioned the Dresslers (Jolly Green Giant)
whose house He babysat while he was at Trinity and they were on the west
side.

His presentation that night was on the importance of movements in history
and they are attempting to treat this book tour as means of building the
movemental base of the current justice movement and progressive religious
action. He is clearly from the Evangelical camp, but "transpodane" in his
thought.

If your not already linked you might want to check out the Soujurns or Call
to Renewal web sites: www.sojo.net Will get you to sojurns and hopefully a
link to the list serve; For call to renewal it is
http://www.calltorenewal.org/about_us/index.cfm/action/campaign.html
Call to Renewal is a national network of churches, faith-based
organizations, and individuals working to overcome poverty in America.

I want to "ditto" all that has been said about the book of JWM's talks and
writings. They are great, and I plan to recommend the book to anyone who is
on a journey of profound humanness.  G&P
