Politics is one of those things we’re not supposed to talk about anymore in church. Right? Well the Scriptures and the Psalms actually have a lot to teach us about how believers in the risen Jesus are to engage with the world around us. So let’s get uncomfortable and learn about how we can be witnesses of the gospel in intense political times.
Hope for Politics (Revelation 12-14)
Politics has never been hotter or more polarizing than it is now. How could there possibly be hope for politics today? Listen in today and find how the Lamb provides our deepest hope, even for politics.
Redeeming the Striving (2 Kings 22-23)
All of us strive for something (or even many things) in life. These are our hopes and dreams put into action. But what do we do when what we strive for doesn't come about? Is it possible for our striving to be redeemed? Listen in today and learn about King Josiah's striving and how Jesus Christ redeems all of our striving.
Redeeming the Powerful (2 Kings 20:1-19)
How are we to understand the role of power in our world today? In the genealogy of Jesus, we see many powerful kings - some good and some bad. How does Jesus Christ redeem power and how does it affect how we engage in politics and elections today? Listen in today as we direct our gaze upon the Lamb on the eternal throne.
Tearful Hope (Psalm 80)
In times of tears and darkness, it is natural for humans to have soul-cries towards something or someone outside of ourselves who can restore us. Psalm 80 repeats this cry for "restoration" three times. What does this teach us about challenging times we go through, and does this even have something to teach us about where we place our ultimate hope? Listen in today and discover how Jesus Christ steps into that space we long to have filled.
