The recent election has left us with many lessons we need to think about—particularly for the body of Christ. In this critical moment, God is speaking clearly to us as Christ-followers who are engaged in the culture, highlighting the importance of our work and the direction we must take as we move forward in both ministry and service to others and our personal commitment to Jesus.

The survey, led by veteran researcher Dr. George Barna at Arizona Christian University, explained the reasons for the...

By Bunni Pounds Published on October 31, 2024 I hear it all the time: “Bunni, how in the world can you be involved in politics?” In a time when politics are often polarizing and contentious, we Christians grapple with the idea of civic engagement that doesn’t compromise our faith. Even my own father felt for years that politics was inherently evil. However, the Bible provides a perspective to help us understand our role in the world, emphasizing that we have the power to carry love, justice,...

According to longtime market researcher George Barna, this election season is marked by a sharp drop in voter enthusiasm. Only about 51% of churchgoers plan to vote next week. In addition, many pastors have distanced themselves from the election, avoiding the subject of voting and other key issues altogether. This is tragic for American Christianity.

As I’ve traveled across the nation this year, I’ve had many opportunities to share about my work mobilizing Christians to engage in the political process. What continues to surprise me, however, is that many believers tell me they do not plan to vote because their vote “doesn’t matter.”Some tell me, “I already know who is going to win in my state.” Others claim, “I don’t know any of the people on the ballot.

In his well-known book A Christian Manifesto, published in 1981, the great Christian philosopher Francis Schaeffer raised the question of when it is right for Christians to take up arms against the government. In his view, Christians should work within the system through legal and political means. If that failed, civil disobedience can be called for. Only then, as a last resort in extreme circumstances with a tyrannical government, he believed, could forceful resistance potentially be justified.
