Jesus Radicals

Jesus Radicals is a collaborative effort: our site is made up of a team of regular contributors, an editorial board that reviews reader-submitted articles, a collective of co-hosts that develop the Iconocast podcast, an annual conference planning group, and a few forums administrators.

Our primary focus is to explore the theologically practical politics of a Jesus-centered life and how that way of life may benefit from a critical engagement with anarchist political stances (defined broadly as a commitment to critique of all forms of domination). To that end we have a theology section that includes the most comprehensive collection of articles by Jacques Ellul anywhere in the world, as well as other radical theologians with anarchic tendencies. We have content that explains a variety of anarchist stances on issues including (but not limited to) economics, policing, and war. And, since our place within creation is largely ignored within Christian theology and classical anarchist politics, we explore our relationship with the environment, as well as human relationships with non-human animals.

All of this is augmented by a steady flow of articles, a biweekly podcast, a community forum, and an annual gathering.
