In this special edition of All The Things, Monique, Krista and Kevin went live to offer some biblical wisdom about the apparent assassination attempt on President Trump.
Tonight’s show is a Special Edition livestream, due to the apparent assassination attempt on President Trump.
Remember:
As Christians, we are called to evidence! We are not called to rumor, speculation, or gossip!
We need to be slow to speak, let the evidence come out, and PRAY!
We need to count the cost of what we say because non-Christians are watching us in our social media feeds
Be careful of information that is posted abruptly (especially in the age of AI); again, slow down and wait for confirmed reports/evidence
Christianity and Conservatism are not the same thing! Be careful of those who hyper-spiritualize political figures/events; Christianity will endure no matter who or what form of government is in power!
Don’t fall into an “escape-pod” mindset; instead, as Christians, we must continue in hope…get married, have children, disciple our children in the Christian faith, etc (see the link for Krista’s podcast for more on this!)
What Now?
Pray! Specifically pray for God’s mercy on our country (see the link for Krista’s podcast for more on this!)
Go to church
Go to work on Monday and interact with those who we don’t agree with politically; we must cross the divide and not let hate win (see book link)
Have conversations with our kids regarding the reality of sin (not Democrat vs. Republican), the importance of voting & praying for our leaders
Stop finger-pointing and be the best people we can be as a party, as individuals, and as a family
Christians, we can show up and be different! We have a better hope to offer those who are confused and hopeless.
Final Thoughts:
It’s okay to acknowledge that today was a sad day for our nation; the anger and discouragement of where our nation has fallen is legit
What people need is the Gospel! Christians, get clarity on what the Gospel is and how to share with others
Two tools that will ultimately bring lasting change: Evangelism and Discipleship
