Christ for President

Sojourn Community Church has been plowing through the book of Romans all this year, and, as luck (??) would have it, we just finished chapter 12 and are about to move into chapter 13. Just in time for the national election… hmm…

I’m really excited as to what they are going to say, because Pastor Daniel Montgomery has promised to “pick a fight” with all of us. The Church, if I remember my demographics correctly, runs about 50/50 Democrat and Republican- so that’s a whole lot of fights to pick. Here is a part of the blurb posted on the church’s site:

“Our call as Christians is to live in the tension between political apathy and political idolatry. As we turn to God’s word, we come to Romans 13, Paul’s message to Christians under the reign of Christ and also under the earthly authority of government. How do we live under seemingly contradicting authorities? We hope you’ll join us as we investigate how our new identity in Christ as his church informs and transforms our relationship to politics.”

You can read the whole thing here. If you’re at all interested in this, you can also be watching the resources page for audio and video of the sermons after they are given.
