CT: World Vision Helped Evangelicals Become Social Activists\u2014Within Limits<\/strong><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n“This was always the challenge for World Vision, the small missionary agency that grew to be the largest Christian humanitarian aid organization in the world: How do you convince evangelicals that caring about social issues is part of the gospel? How do you persuade them that tending the sick and caring for the poor isn\u2019t in conflict with sharing the good news of Christ\u2019s death and resurrection?”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nDAVID P. KING:<\/strong> “While it is impossible to understand twenty-first-century evangelicalism without politics, the political dimension is only part of the evangelical ethos. The landscape continues to evolve, but global issues remain front and center. Despite ongoing uncertainty on evangelicalism\u2019s future and the complexities of individuals\u2019 and institutions\u2019 religious identities and practices, as more American Christians embrace a global vision, perhaps a new form of practical ecumenism may lead to transcending or transgressing past theological and political boundary markers.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.godandculture.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/King_David_cropped1.jpg\")
