Summary

Are you overwhelmed by all this talk of politics and religion? Don’t let that turn you away from this important discussion! Today on Family Talk, Pastor Jack Hibbs, founder and senior pastor of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills in California, discusses the church’s role in society today. He further explains that it is a pastor’s responsibility to know what is going on in all aspects of our culture, in addition to preaching the gospel. Discover more about our God-given privileges and responsibilities, in public policy as well as religion. Matthew 10:38 says, “Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me.” As Christians, we must not bury our heads in the sand and let evil run rampant. We have a voice, so let’s use it!
