Author envisions a new spiritual and political revival

St. Paul, Minn. — Rev. Jim Wallis argues in his new book that America is on the verge of a revival, as people of faith search for common ground to find solutions for such issues as poverty and climate change.

Wallis likens this revival to the religion-fueled movements that helped end slavery and institutional racism.
