Summary

Politics & Potlucks: The Church’s Place in American Culture. Today, Mike and Tim explore a range of topics from Halloween traditions to the complexities of political theology within the Christian faith. They discuss the cultural implications of figures like Taylor Swift, the significance of community engagement, and the importance of loving one's enemies in a politically charged environment. The conversation delves into the nature of power dynamics, the role of the church in political discourse, and the need for a deeper understanding of Christian identity in relation to societal issues.

As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue. Feel free to email in questions to [email protected], and to engage the conversation on Facebook and Instagram.
