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
so enjoy this free sample of,
20
00:00:59,017 --> 00:01:00,727
