OverviewHave you ever disagreed with a friend on the subject of politics? If so you will know how entrenched the differences can be. By looking at the lives of prominent politicians of different parties - and the Christian profession made by each - it is possible to see a sign of unity and hope in the world of political dogma. People of integrity who have opposing solutions to world problems can affirm that they have a common faith - one which will outlast governments and policies; common concerns which govern their actions and determine their priorities. This is no manifesto for a political party; rather it is a picture of faith at work in the controversal territory of Whitehall.
