6: Faith and Political Allegiance

Finding God at Work · Jul 22, 2025 · 19m · transcript

What does it mean to give Jesus our allegiance?

When the chips are down and we have to make a choice between loyalty to Jesus and loyalty to country, party, or movement, who do we choose?

Do we take up our cross even if it means laying down our lives?

Or do we end up choosing a different kingdom over the kingdom of God?

If we do, we are calling on a different king than Jesus.
