This week is an Ask Me Anything with Pastor Nic about his recent sermon he preached on missions and politics. The primary focus of this episode is on how Christians should navigate conflicts between their God-given authority from Christ and other earthly authorities like governments. Pastor Nic explains that while Christians should generally obey legitimate authority, when those authorities exceed their rightful boundaries and interfere with Christians' commission to make disciples, their actions become tyrannical, and Christians have a responsibility not to be servile. Throughout the discussion, they address numerous theological questions about missions, evangelism, predestination, handling persecution, maintaining faith in difficult times, and appropriate Christian responses to authority.
