Faith and Politics

Pastor Eugene talks about the 7 of the big issues he considers when voting and his conviction that followers of Jesus shouldn't be in bed with either of the two major parties.  That we ought to remain “Independent” with a commitment to collaborate, listen, engage, and support the political system all while understanding that the political system is not our ultimate Hope or Answer.
