The Problem of God & Country

Jul 2, 2019

We love our country and the freedoms she represents and the grace God has shown the United States. However, problems arise when we confuse policies and political leaders as functional saviors in the place of Jesus' preeminence over all earthly kingdoms. 
Join us for a conversation about how the American dream is antithetical to the Gospel, how to not read Scripture with an "American" lens on, and reminding ourselves we are citizens of heaven who reside in the United States. We leave you with some practical ways to keep yourself in check in this area and to encourage you to be the best citizen you can be here, representing the name of Jesus Christ.
