Sermons About Politics
Fixing Society, Step Five: Love the One You're With
During the election season, Christians need wisdom to know how to marry faith and politics. 1Samuel 12 brings a close to the political tension between Samuel and the People and God over whether or not Israel should have an earthly king. The conversation between Samuel and the people of Israel demonstrate the importance of character and a willingness to work together to navigate the messiness of life. The sermon ends with four practical steps that ought to govern our own political discussions and practices if we are to seek unity in the church and peace in the city.

Vote Like A Christian... So Why Don't I See Jesus on the Ballot?
How do you decide how to vote? Voting with a Christian mind, not a “Christian voting guide” To vote with a Christian mind, I must: 1) know that my primary citizenship is to God (v. 9) 2) know that I am a resident alien (v. 11; Phil. 3:20-21) 3) know that I carry personal responsibility for my actions (v. 11-12) 4) know that I must submit to the governing authority, even if I didn’t vote for it (v. 13-14) 5) know that I have freedom within the boundaries of morality (v. 16) 6) know that God is not my slave, I am his (v. 16) 7) know that I owe respect to everyone (v. 17)
