| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Politics by Faith. Thanks for being here. This is part two of our special on |
| 0:04.5 | Donald Trump, the peace president. We talked to the editor-in-chief of the Washington |
| 0:08.4 | Examiner. He's great. You give some wonderful insight here. A lot of really good points. |
| 0:12.8 | And then I do a quick analysis on Matthew 5, 9, the Sermon on the Mount, |
