Summary

In this episode, we welcome Josh Howerton to the show. He is the Senior Pastor of Lakepointe Church in Dallas, TX. In this interview, we discuss what it is like being a third-generation pastor, why he decided to do an entire sermon titled “How to Vote Like Jesus” addressing Christians that do not think they should be involved in the political process, the ramifications of allowing the world to disciple people, how politics is getting more theological, why he did not outright endorse a candidate for President during the sermon, whether or not Jesus would vote, why a vote is not a valentine, why a ballot box is not a mailbox, what type of leader we should be looking for, what to do when neither candidate is signaling that they are Pro-Life, how Christians should view border security and overall policy, why politics cannot fix what politics did not break, and much more.

0:00.0	I'm your host Kyle Tom. This is Undaunted Life a Man's Podcast.
0:24.0	I'm your host Kyle Thompson.
0:25.8	Let's get into it.
0:27.0	All right guys, we've got a special guest on the podcast today.

0:38.9	I asked him, like, hey, who are those up-and-coming pastors that we should all be keeping an eye on because you
0:43.7	know they're solid dudes and they're growing into their ministry and they're
0:46.4	getting their sea legs and all those types of things and he only mentioned one
0:48.5	pastor and that was Josh Howerton and so we've been planning to get him on the show for a while now but it's
0:54.2	interesting timing because just a couple of weeks before we recorded this he
0:58.3	delivered one of the best sermons that I've heard specifically on the topic of Christians and politics.
1:05.0	And so he talked about it was called how to vote like Jesus, so obviously a very
1:08.7	controversial title.
1:10.1	We do a little bit of introductory work there at the beginning, talk about a lot of fun subjects, but then we actually dig in to the sermon.
1:15.8	We dig into, okay, if Jesus were alive today, would he be voting?
1:20.3	What exactly does that look like?
1:22.3	Why he even wanted to go here?
1:24.0	Because a lot of pastors are just,
1:25.0	we're just going to ignore the political side,
