Sunday Nights at High Pointe October 23, 5:30 p.m.
Join us this Sunday for part 2 of "Christianity and Politics" taught by Pastor Chris Lenoir. Childcare is available in the Counseling Office for ages 0-5.
Christianity and Politics
Religion and Politics. Two things "they" say to never discuss if you want a civil conversation. We are going to break that rule, and talk about both! It is an election year, and if you are like many, you feel your choices of people to vote for are less than ideal. Perhaps you are angry, freaking out, depressed, or saddened to see the current state of affairs in the country you call home. Maybe you are just wondering why God is letting these things happen to the greatest "Christian" nation in the world. No matter where you are at, or what your political views are, the goal of Christianity and Politics is to help you make sense of everything.
