Mark 12: 13-17 and Romans 13:1-3, Guest Preacher: Neill Johnson
A Valentine to Church and State: Reconciling the Conflicts
What does it mean to love church and country when the two are so at odds? What does it mean to love them when our soul conscience leads us to resist their respective authorities? The Gospels and the Epistles are full of wisdom that helps us address these deeply troubling questions. At a time when we Christians are so divided against ourselves that some are even predicting civil war, we need the wisdom of our tradition more than ever. If we can hear it, live it, and bear witness to it, it may just save us!
