Progressive Evangelicals Highlighted

MSNBC has posted an article about progressive evangelicals that quotes Jimmy Carter, Tony Campolo, Daniel Vestal and Ron Sider. Here's a little of what Daniel Vestal, Coordinator of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, had to say:

"The more conservative wing of the evangelical movement has already had an impact ... particularly centered around same-sex marriage and abortion," Vestal said in an interview. While he said "it's a good thing that people of evangelical faith" are part of the public debate, "I think it's bad in that sometimes people other than evangelical Christians identify evangelical Christians only by those issues."
