61: Should Christians Be Conservatives or Liberals?


Listen Later

After Shawn accuses James of being a flaming liberal, they discuss the meaning and origin of the terms "conservative" or "liberal" and how they should or shouldn't apply to the Christian. Do some people naturally orient one way or another based on their personality or stage in life? How are conservative and liberals in the church to work together? Was Jesus a conservative or a liberal? And what does that mean for how Christians today should orient ourselves to the political and religious movements that categorize themselves as one or the other?
