Sojourners: Faith Guiding Our Votes


May 31st, 2007 5:00 PM EST
By Michael Sherrard, Online Organizer, Sojourners/Call to Renewal


All of us at Sojourners are excited to be a partner with the ONE Campaign in seeking to end extreme poverty, which we believe is one of the greatest moral and religious imperatives of our time. And we’re just as excited to have ONE’s support for Faith Guiding Our Votes: A Presidential Forum on Faith, Values, and Poverty, a conversation we’re hosting with Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, and Barack Obama which will be broadcast live on CNN this coming Monday, June 4, at 7 PM Eastern time. (A similar forum with Republican candidates is being planned for the fall.)

We’re in the final stages of deciding what questions to ask the candidates, and are asking our friends and supporters to cast a vote for which question they’d most like us to ask. (I hope I’m not prejudicing the vote any by mentioning that one of the nominees is a question about global poverty and the Millennium Development Goals.)

Tune in to CNN Monday to see which question is asked and how the candidates respond. Better yet, consider joining others at a watch party in your area, where people of faith will gather to issue a prophetic challenge to put poverty at the top of the national agenda.
