Exiles in Babylon: A Christian Political Identity. Preston Sprinkle

This episode is a talk I gave at the Center for Pastor Theologians annual conference held in Oak Park, IL, in September 2024. In this talk, I try to unpack what the Bible says about a Christian political identity by looking at the Scriptural themes of exile and Babylon. The talk was received fairly well, espeically by the Anabaptists in the back, who were hootin' and hollerin'. Others had some really thoughtful questions and pushback. --If you've enjoyed this content, please subscribe to my channel!Support Theology in the Raw through Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theologyintherawOr you can support me directly through Venmo: @Preston-Sprinkle-1Visit my personal website: https://www.prestonsprinkle.comFor questions about faith, sexuality & gender: https://www.centerforfaith.com Learn more about your ad choices.
