Pastoral Thoughts on Election 2024
We are one week away from an election in the United States. It’s an election that has once again proved to be quite contentious. People are walking away from friends and family who are voting differently from them. I am watching churches devour themselves over politics. There are factions and dissensions that are rising in every corner of our society. In so many ways we continue to walk away from the way of love.
As a pastor there is a constant pressure to support this candidate or that candidate. I have been private messaged more times than I can to admit about why I do not talk about politics from the pulpit or on my social media.
Here’s the thing, everything I preach is politics. Anytime I write about faith or the way of Jesus, it is politics.
Amy’s perfect fall day:
- Hiking at Maybury State Park
- Parmenter’s Cider Mill for cider and donuts
- 12 hours of college football beginning with her beloved Indiana Hoosiers
Voting from the comfort of my own home is a wonderful thing. I’m grateful for the accessibility to vote in our country.
