We have just begun reading this book as a new series in our Sunday school class at church and even though we're not through the entire book yet, I want to strongly suggest that you read it before the upcoming election. Erwin Lutzer has some very convicting thoughts about how we as Christians should view the election, the roles of government in religion, political parties, and God's role in the affairs of nations. The answers really will surprise you!
I'll leave you with a few thoughts from his book:
"We need to ask ourselves some hard questions about whether the church can be strong even if seemingly the "wrong" candidate is elected to office. Can we have a vibrant church even when our government turns hostile to the Christian worldview?"
"The better we understand how God is involved in government, the more likely we will be kept from the folly of identifying one political party as Christian and the other not."
