Politics remains a divisive and contentious area in the culture at large and among Christians. What does it mean to think Biblically and well about the political arena? What exactly does the Bible give us about complex political issues? Join Scott and Sean for this important discussion about this controversial area.

I really appreciated the quotes at the end and the spirit in which this was discussed. However, we as Christians are called to be salt in a putrefying world. Presenting both sides as if they are somehow equal is not faithful and may lead people astray. How far is the Democratic party from Nazi's? They are pushing for LGBTQ rights and genital mutilation of children, they advocate for abortion up to birth, our President recently interviewed a man pretending to be a girl and celebrated it on national T.V. they are calling good evil and evil good (using the FBI to imprison pro-life protestors, inciting violence against our supreme court justices ("won't know what hit them"), refuse to protect it's own citizens against foreign invaders(sex trafficking, fentanyl) and the church won't call them out. The republican party is far from perfect but the democrats are demonic. How bad do they have to get? Will we be another silent German church in the face of pure evil? Don't give people the go ahead to vote them in. I couldn't just leave it.

Great conversation but Scott should investigate the reasons behind the separation of families at the border. This was started partially because of the human trafficking at the border. This is compassionate for those children being held in slavery. I agree the system is broken but some of us want control for compassionate reasons. We could have another discussion about those who come for nefarious reasons. Tough subject done with grace and respect as always from you both.

My mom was a social worker. A few years ago, I was at her house, and I was able to listen in on a phone conference she was involved in. They spoke about the border and the trafficking business that takes advantage of it. They also spoke about New York and the effort that politicians were making to legalize prostitution. The same laws that law enforcement uses to Crack down on sex trafficking are the laws that they use to stop prostitution.

Excellent discussion. As Christians we should be involved in every aspect of the world to be God’s representatives and shine God’s Truth.

I truly am grateful for this podcast. I'm very new to true Christianity. I was raised a Jehovah's Witness so there's so much I'm confused about. However, I feel that when I think "what would Jesus do" if he had a podcast, it seems he would spend quite a bit of time on discussing issues of the poor, homeless, disabled people, ect. of society. It's important to talk doctrine such as gay and transgender topics but it seems to overwhelm things that are more important like compassion. It might be more popular in our culture at this time to discuss certain topics but I don't think Jesus would care about how many hits he's getting on his page or focus on judging others and dogma. He was literally anti-dogma and doctrine.

The two speakes’ methodology is good but their inability to stand against an obvious anti humanist not to mention anti Christian policies of the Democratic Party is disappointing Proverbs 24:10-12
