Summary

During a service at McLean Bible Church where he serves as pastor, David Platt got a phone call telling him that President Trump was on his way with a request that the church pray for him. Minutes later, the president was standing on stage and David was praying for the leader of the free world. The aftermath of that day showed David that even the church is not immune to today’s toxic political climate. As Christians, what is our response to a worldly government? David Platt's latest book, "Before You Vote: Seven Questions Every Christian Should Ask," takes on the subject that seems to be dividing the entire country, Christians included.
