Episode description

Do politics and Christianity mix? Does the Bible have anything to say about voting? How do I choose between the lesser of two evils? In this episode, John and Pastor Eric sit down to have a friendly discussion about Christianity and the government, how a biblical understanding of our identity in Christ informs and empowers us, and how we can navigate today's politically charged culture with a biblical mindset.

Main points:

  • Take advantage of the opportunity to vote, but trust the Lord with the outcome.
  • Honor the authorities, but fear God.
  • Pray for those in authority.
  • Pay your taxes.
  • Remember that our hope rests in Christ alone.

Bible Passages mentioned:

1Peter 2:9-17; Mark 12:17; 1Timothy 2:1-4
