Christ is Lord
“‘These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also… saying that there is another king, Jesus.’ And the people and the city authorities were disturbed when they heard these things.”
—Acts 17:6–8
There’s a lot of hubbub about how Christians should (or shouldn’t) be engaged in politics, and many Christians are confused:
Maybe you already believe that Jesus is Lord, but you don’t know how that fits into a neutral, secular public square.
Maybe you want to vote for your Christian values, but you’ve heard that’s just white Christian nationalism — and you’re not racist.
Maybe you’re unhappy that we’re transing kids and killing unborn babies, but you’ve been taught that Christians should never impose their morality on others.
Christ is Lord is for Christians who would never read 500 pages of political theology, but would happily sit down with a Bible study from Lifeway.
It aims to encourage Christians that it’s okay to want something different and better for our neighborhoods, cities, states, and country — in Jesus’ name.
Each week’s entry will discuss a passage or two from the Bible with the aim of helping you understand and defend a biblical, Christian approach to the lordship of Jesus Christ in the public square.
