Brinson: Evangelicals transforming their concerns

In the Center for a Better South's new December 2006 FIVE QUESTIONS interview, Alabama doctor and Christian leader Randy Brinson takes a look at how evangelical Christians are transforming their relationship to politics by expanding their concerns to global warming, health care, poverty and more.

QUOTE: "I think Christian evangelicals are proud of the spirit that exudes from the culture of the South. I think they want to see the spirit of the Christmas season continue throughout the year. "

Brinson is co-founder and chairman of Redeem the Vote, a nationally-known nonprofit organization founded in 2003 to improve voter registration and participation among young people of faith.
