Terrence Mcnally Podcast

Aired 01/10/10 JIM WALLIS Founder/President, Sojourners; editor, Sojourners magazine; Author, GOD'S POLITICS; THE GREAT AWAKENING; and his newest, REDISCOVERING VALUES on Wall Street, Main Street, and Your Street: A Moral Compass for the New Economy. In REDISCOVERING VALUES, JIM WALLIS argues that the worst thing we can do now is to go back to normal. Normal is what got us into this mess. We need a new normal, and this economic crisis is an invitation to discover what that means. Some of the principles he offers for a new normal are... · Spending money we don't have for things we don't need is a bad foundation for an economy or a family. · Care for the poor is not just a moral duty, but is critical for the common good. · A healthy society is a balanced society in which markets, the government, and our communities all play a role.
