    Is THIS our Real Problem with Voting?

    Brian talks with political advisor & author Michael Wear about the moral weight of the American vote.

Does moral knowledge have a place in our government? Where can a Christian find a home in our political environment? Dr. Brian Doak is an Old Testament scholar and professor. Michael Wear is the Founder, President and CEO of the Center for Christianity and Public Life. Check out Michael's book, The Spirit of Our Politics.

    HOW Christians need to prepare for the new phase of American politics

    On the heels of an unsettling presidential debate, Christian activist Jason Fileta and Old Testament scholar Dr. Brian Doak come to grips with the political state of our nation and ask the question on many hearts this election season: how should Christians faithfully engage & participate when we can't find a political home? They talk about lobbying, considering the marginalized, prioritizing prayer, and detaching from our political identities in order to realign with the way of Jesus.
