Politics, Media, Politics in the Life of the Church | by Jonathan Leeman

In this second session of a three-part workshop, pastor and author Jonathan Leeman helps us navigate how Christians should think about politics. How does the Bible dictate what it means to be a citizen? How can Christians make a political impact? We address these questions by considering the scriptural basis, and bounds, for our political engagement.

Politics, Media, Psalms: Walking With God, Sermons | by Jonathan Leeman

We continue our series in the Psalms that runs parallel to our series in Romans. The purpose of this study is to learn from the psalmists what it means to faithfully walk with God through the ups-and-downs of life in a world marred by sin. Today, in Psalm 2, we consider how the reality of Jesus’ kingship over the nations helps us navigate times of political turmoil with confidence and hope.

This sermon also serves as the first session of a three-part workshop, Politics in the Life of the Church, with pastor and author Jonathan Leeman. For a full list of sessions and video recordings, visit our event webpage here.
