✅ [FREE E-BOOK] LeaderSHIFT: 8 Pivotal Breakthroughs of Emotionally Healthy Leaders https://www.emotionallyhealthy.org/leadershift

---------------------------

All around the world, there is an electrical charge surging through the minds and hearts of the people we lead. Our political climate has made this another difficult, yet important time to pastor and lead well.

So how do we navigate politics personally AND from the pulpit without falling prey to the common traps of both sides of the aisle?

In this podcast episode (Part 2 of 2), I share what I believe are 4 invitations from God to the Church in this moment.

Within these invitations are keys for us to lead with grace, steadiness, and wisdom, as we pastor our churches through this storm.

0:00.0	Hi, my name is Pete Cazaro. I want to welcome you again today to another episode of the
0:12.1	Emotionally Healthy Leader Podcast. And today is a part two on the topic of four invitations
0:19.6	from God in our politically charged world.
0:23.8	So good to be with you and just so excited about Part 2 for today.

1:04.6	At the resurrection, people will neither marry nor be given in marriage. They will be like the
1:09.9	angels in heaven. And so basically Jesus is saying, when you marriage. They will be like the angels in heaven.
1:11.2	And so basically Jesus is saying, when you read scripture, you read with the end in mind.
1:15.4	And so as we approach this topic of how do we navigate this political polarization all around us,
1:22.0	we read with the end in mind, the fact that we're looking forward to when there'll be one world filled with a glory
1:30.2	of the Lord, a new heaven, and a new earth. So the four invitations are really kind of based on
1:34.6	that. And so last podcast, we dealt with two of the four, I'll call them radical invitations
