The 2020 election is shaping up to be the most important election of our lifetime. For Nebraskans, this election also includes the decision of whether or not to legalize casino gambling.

We’ll answer these questions and explain why Nebraskans should vote against Initiatives 429, 430, and 431 on this week’s Capitol Connection, featuring comments from Les Bernal, National Director of Stop Predatory Gambling, Candace Gregory, President and CEO of Open Door Mission, and Pastor James Patterson, Senior Pastor at Trinity Hope Foursquare Church.

As Christians, we have many reasons to care about government and the political process.

Unfortunately, the divisive and partisan nature of our political system discourages many Christians from studying what the Bible teaches about government and considering how faith should inform one’s view of politics.

On this week’s Capitol Connection Podcast, we breakdown the three myths that Christians must stop believing about politics:

1. “Separation of church and state” means Christianity can’t influence government 

2. You can’t legislate morality

3. The Church should not get involved with political issues

Learn how these myths damage the church, government, and culture, and how we can replace them with true Biblical principles for political engagement.

Plus, hear what’s at stake with the Supreme Court vacancy and why Judge Barret should be confirmed to the Supreme Court.
