What this episode covers
Responsible citizenship is a spiritual calling, about living lives as active, engaged citizens as a form of spiritual discipline and a way of bringing our values into our communities in positive ways. There is much debate in U.S. churches about the relationship the church should have with politics. Whatever people think about politics, from the pulpit and the separation of church and state, it is incontrovertible that our values influence our political beliefs -- and our faith influences our values.
