We believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ is always Good News to all people in all situations – this includes politics. When the disciples declared “Jesus is Lord,” this was a political statement, not just a theological one. The coming of the Messiah was fused with political implications for the Jewish people and the Roman Empire, and it is true for us in the United States. So what does it look like to say Jesus is Lord – not a politician, pundit, party or platform – and live that out faithfully. We will talk about it, invite you to take a concrete step, and join a small group bible study.
Immediate step: "Confession" that Jesus is Lord alongside Christians all over the world. (website and details coming)
Long-term step: Join or lead a small group and go through our 5-part discussion series this fall. They can also sign up to be informed of weekly coaching sessions via Zoom to help them out!
All are welcome, especially Small Group leaders and those interested in leading faithful discussions this fall around politics, our faith and the state of our country.
