John Stonestreet used an interesting term (pre-political) that got me thinking about how many government programs would be unnecessary if the Church was doing what Jesus called the Church to do.
Here’s the full quote from John Stonestreet: “Christian political engagement should hit its fever pitch not during elections. The only way to relieve the political pressures of our day is to build up the pre-political aspects of our life together, especially the family and the Church. When we care well for our children, our neighbors, and our communities, the state doesn’t have to.”
The Scriptures I reference in this video—Isaiah 3:4-5; Mark 12:28-31; Matthew 25:34-40.
The post I mention in the video that was prompted by the Isaiah 3 passage is It’s Not “Them,” It’s Us.
