Liberal v. Conservative Theology: The Role of Social Responsibility

There has traditionally been a perceived split in the value systems of liberal and conservative Christians.  Liberal Christians have appeared to focus on social issues in the world, such as the environment and poverty, whereas conservative Christians have focused predominately on personal issues such as abortion and sexual morality.  The purpose of this blog is to engage in an ongoing conversation as to why evangelical living necessitates a social conscience and activism, to address how the expansion of "evangelism" to encompass social responsibility will deepen our faith, and to provide practical ways to make a difference in this world, as we are called to do.
