Kanen was 5 years old when he bravely began his battle with Ewings Sarcoma. He loved his family, the beach, baseball, and the Philadelphia Eagles. Kanen’s fight against pediatric cancer will be remembered for not only how he stood up to a formidable enemy, but also how he was able to spread unconditional love to his family, friends, and community. His family will continue to help those families being devastated by cancer and fund new research to aid in the eradication of this deadly disease.

Have you ever felt too progressive for conservatives, but too conservative for progressives? It's easy for faithful Christians to grow disillusioned with civic engagement or fall into tribal extremes. Representing the AND Campaign, the authors of this book lay out the biblical case for political engagement and help Christians navigate the complex world of politics with integrity.

Navigating the complexities of political engagement, this book addresses the challenges Christians face in balancing social justice with biblical values. The authors, representing the AND Campaign, advocate for transcending binary political debates and emphasize the importance of loving one's neighbor through civic involvement. They provide a biblical framework for understanding political issues, covering topics like race, advocacy, and protests, while encouraging integrity in political discourse. A study guide for group discussions is included to facilitate deeper exploration of these themes.

In The Spirit of Our Politics, Michael Wear, president and CEO of the Center for Christianity and Public Life, draws on the writings of Dallas Willard to offer us hope and direction for making a difference in public life while breaking free of the toxic, partisan mode of political engagement ravaging our country, churches, and families today.
