“Our nation is in crisis. The questions Christ posed in his day, about truth, power, justice and of anyone who claimed to be his followers, offer clues for facing our current moment.” - Jim Wallis
Reclaiming Jesus Now with Jim Wallis is a ten-episode podcast series on the themes of Jim Wallis’ new book, Christ in Crisis: Why We Need to Reclaim Jesus. Wallis is joined by two voices from a rising generation of activists, William Matthews and Allison Trowbridge, who seek to reconcile their own spiritual journeys with the spiritual and political crises we face today.
Jim Wallis’ new book, and the conversations in this podcast, are organized around eight urgent and provocative questions Jesus Christ asked or provoked while pursuing his call:
The Neighbor QuestionThe Image QuestionThe Truth QuestionThe Power QuestionThe Fear QuestionThe Caesar QuestionThe Peacemaker QuestionThe Discipleship Question
These questions confront all of us with an invitation and a choice. How will you respond?

Customer Reviews
This is it.
Wow. These conversations are what we need, especially right now. Thank you Matthew, Alison, and Jim for your openness and willingness to dive deep into these issues and to discuss what Jesus would actually be doing if He were walking among us today. He IS among us, through His people, and this series of conversations make that a much clearer reality for me.
We could use another series, now please ?
What would Jesus do? I feel only one answer: he’d be standing with our brothers. He’d be promoting justice, standing for peace.. he’d not be holding a Bible while tear gassing innocent peaceful protesters.. tell me I have it correct.. I follow the radical Jesus.. Jesus turns over the money tables, dines with sinners, forgives thieves on the cross.. am I wrong? My heart is broken.. Father have you forsaken us?
Faith, hope, and a muscular love
I accidentally found this podcast, I’m so glad I did. When I hear this, I think, “Yes. Finally. This is the kind of Christian I am.”
I haven’t felt that in a very, very long time.
Thank you to the hosts, guests, and crew behind this excellent project.
