Colfax Avenue: Daniel Schultz, a pastor in the United Church of Christ and co-founder of the blog Street Prophets, where he writes as “pastordan,” will discuss and sign his new book Changing the Script: An Authentically Faithful and Authentically Progressive Political Theology for the 21st Century ($15.95 Ig). In his book, Schultz, one of the leading progressive religious voices in America today, builds upon the insights of Old Testament scholar and theologian Walter Brueggemann to identify five “scripts” that exercise unseen power in our society: the therapeutic, technological, consumerist, militarist, and conformist. Confronting each of these scripts and the actions of both the Right and the Left that have allowed them to take root in our culture, Schultz voices a perspective that shows what an authentically progressive and authentically faithful religious ideal would truly look like.
