A study from Arizona Christian University recently suggested that 32 million regular churchgoers are likely to stay home this upcoming election. However, as Christians we are called to advance God's Kingdom everywhere, even and perhaps especially in the world of politics. This teaching examines that concept Biblically, but also from the perspective of American history. And in doing so, we also examine a side-by-side comparison of the platforms of our two major political parties and size them up against biblical values. After this teaching, you can no longer claim ignorance. So go now and advance God's Kingdom in the earth!
