Summary

In a nation divided and a pivotal election on the horizon, how should Christians engage with politics? 🤔 How much should our faith influence our public life? What’s truly at stake when we step into the political arena? As we approach the U.S. elections, the spotlight is on debates and appearances from figures like Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Here’s the kicker: many Christians are grappling with how to reconcile Trump’s controversial past—marked by scandals and a self-serving attitude—with the moral values they hold dear. What are conservative Christians really seeking when it comes time to cast their votes? Can Christians genuinely justify voting for Trump? Join Roger Bolton as he dives into this contentious issue, exploring the complex intersection of faith and politics with New York Times bestselling author and Trump supporter Eric Metaxas.
