Episode description
How might we be tempted to over-identify with our politics in unsettling times? On the second Sunday of Easter, Nic Acosta fasts from being “that guy” in regards to seeing everything solely through a political identity and challenges us to question how a purity psychology of politics might subtly supplant our love for Christ and neighbor. [John 12:1-8]
Reflection
- Has purity thinking affected how I relate to other with different political views?
- What are some ways I can practice detaching my sense of self from my political views?
- How can I lean into Christ as the true source of my identity?
