Jim Wallis over at Sojourners has his take on the new British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, who he says called Wallis and requested a meeting. Apparently the two soon became fast friends.

I have taken American heads of churches and development agencies to visit with Brown, and they have been universally and amazingly impressed with his deep understanding of the issues of globalization and his personal commitment to tackling the moral challenge of inequality.

I believe that Gordon Brown has more passion (and knowledge) about the issues of global poverty and social justice than any other Western leader today. And I believe his leadership could make a great difference. He is somebody you should know and follow closely.


Sounds like Wallis-who counts several friends in high places, including Barack Obama-has a new ally in his global fight on poverty.
