No matter how you vote, you are welcome in our church.
I just ask that you would commit to see politics thru Jesus & not Jesus thru your politics; that you would be curious about why your brothers & sisters see things differently. And that you would live humble, prayerful lives.
Pastors, beware the temptation to constant commentary and politcal hot takes. Even if we do churchly work in private, we will be known for our public punditry. Jesus is Lord of all, but he has not made us experts over all those things. We must guard our reputation as gospel men.
