PERKINS: How Should Christians Approach the 2024 Election?
by Tony Perkins
In 2024, we're a country racked by violence, turmoil, and upheaval at the highest levels of government. For Christians, this year has not only been marked by the shock of an assassination attempt and the unprecedented shake-up at the top of the Democratic ticket - but a unique set of challenges. The disappointments of a watered-down GOP platform still sting, and the abandonment of core principles by leaders we've come to know and trust is forcing some believers to question their very involvement in politics. When even those who claim to be conservative walk away from absolute truth, as clearly revealed in Scripture, what should Christians do?

Oh My Goodness: Election Season and the Struggle for the Good
by Jared Bridges
We are really bad at goodness. For us, goodness goes badly a good portion of the time. We're told by our parents to "be good" when they're dropping us off at friend's house, and whether or not they find out, we've usually behaved badly.
