Speaker:

We're once again in an election year

here in America.

2

00:00:04,045 --> 00:00:07,590

This is raising questions the church

has wrestled with for hundreds of years.

3

00:00:07,590 --> 00:00:12,053

Questions around political involvement,

voting and separation from the world.

4

00:00:12,721 --> 00:00:15,765

Several years ago,

we interviewed David Bercot on this topic

5

00:00:15,765 --> 00:00:16,933

of political involvement

6

00:00:16,933 --> 00:00:19,936

and the kingdom of God,

which you can find that linked down below.

7

00:00:20,270 --> 00:00:24,441

Bercot has also written a book on this

topic called In God We Don't Trust.

8

00:00:24,983 --> 00:00:27,610

In that book,

he wrestles with questions around

9

00:00:27,610 --> 00:00:32,240

Was America founded as a Christian nation

or was it never Christian to begin with?

10

00:00:32,282 --> 00:00:33,992

What about Manifest Destiny,

11

00:00:33,992 --> 00:00:36,995

and how did that worldview

affect the founding of America?

12

00:00:37,078 --> 00:00:37,996

And much more.

13

00:00:38,830 --> 00:00:39,622

We worked with David

14

00:00:39,622 --> 00:00:42,625

Bercot to turn In God

We Don't Trust into an audio book,

15

00:00:42,625 --> 00:00:45,628

which you can find on all major

audiobook platforms.

16

00:00:45,795 --> 00:00:48,923

And since we're in another election

year here in America,

17

00:00:49,090 --> 00:00:52,802

and because Bercot’s work is as relevant

now as it was when it was first

18

00:00:52,802 --> 00:00:56,473

written, we're releasing a sample chapter

here on the main podcast,

19

00:00:56,848 --> 00:00:59,017

20
