About this episode

The episode discusses the misconceptions surrounding Christian involvement in public life and the distinction between nationalism and theocracy.

Secularists in America express great fear about Christians who bring their faith into the public square, "they want us to live under a theocracy!" But it is an illegitimate fear. It was Christians, first and foremost, in America who learned to push back against the idolatry of the State and it is Christians who, stemming from a committed moral compass, don't want the state to work immorality (not even for doctrinal ends). My friend Mark and I talk through the ins and outs of theocracy, values, beliefs, morals, and doctrines as we consider how to foster a Christian presence—a seasoning of the nation—into play.
