THE STAKES ARE HIGH THIS ELECTION CYCLE....
Every Christian needs to vote!
Is not voting in the 2024 presidential election a wise option for Christians who don't like either of the candidates? When George Barna recently appeared on The Charlie Kirk Show, he revealed some troubling data indicating that as many as 41 million Christians are choosing not to vote this year because they don't like Harris or Trump. If politics isn't your thing or you've lost your enthusiasm to vote, you REALLY need to tune in!
With the election just around the corner, Frank dedicates this podcast episode to focusing on the top three questions that Christians need to consider when it comes to "religion and politics" and what history has taught us when Christians disengage from the world of politics. He also summarizes some of the helpful information you'll find available at VoteYourFaith.net by addressing questions and issues like:
- What are the consequences when Christians don't vote?
- How was Jesus involved in politics, and how does that help us vote?
- If a politician can’t save you, why vote at all? (Sorry, but you’ll see why this is a really stupid objection!)
- Does abortion trump everything else?
- Where do both parties stand on "the more important matters of the law"?
- Should Christians vote for the most good or the least evil?
- What is the Equality Act and how could it hurt our children, our jobs, and our religious freedoms?
- Why you’re actually not voting for one person!
As you'll be reminded during this episode, Christians have the responsibility to be involved in what's going on in our society, and that means loving our neighbors through politics by enacting laws that protect them from evil. God calls us to be ambassadors for His kingdom and we don't stop just because we're not over the moon excited about our choices. God has used both righteous and unrighteous leaders all through the Bible to accomplish His good purposes, so get informed, go vote, and leave the results to God!
