Shane Claiborne is a prominent speaker, activist, and best-selling author. Shane has worked with Mother Teresa in Calcutta, and founded The Simple Way in Philadelphia.
He heads up Red Letter Christians, a movement of folks who are committed to living "as if Jesus meant the things he said." So it’s no secret that Shane is a busy guy…speaking, writing, advocating for human rights all over the place.
A few days before we had this conversation with him, Shane was protesting for immigration reform at the US / Mexico border. In fact, he rode his bike for over 3,200 miles to bring awareness and raise funds to support this necessary work.
He had just gotten back from this trip when his car, which has over 300,000 miles on it, broke down. When we were chatting with him he was literally in this car on his way to advocating to abolish the death penalty and protest against gun violence, which you can read about in his latest book called, Beating Guns.
It is evident in this conversation and in Shane’s sermon his love for Jesus and his desire for peace. It left us feeling inspired and committed to living the life of love Jesus called us to. We hope you enjoy it!
