Franconia Mennonite Church

Pastor Josh concludes the “Church and Politics” series of sermons with a message intriguingly titled “Navigating Faith and Politics in 10 Easy Steps” inspired by Colossians 2:15-20 and James 1:19-20.

In the first week of our Church and Politics sermon series, Pastor Josh encouraged us to pray for unity and to love unconditionally when we disagree politically.  That’s important, but still leaves an unanswered question: should we just ignore our differences?  Pretend they don’t exist?  Not talk about them?  Join us this Sunday as we address “The Way Forward When We Don’t See Eye-to-Eye.”

How do Christians -- citizens of God’s Kingdom and citizens of a nation state -- keep their bearings during election season and political polarities?  What is the relationship between the Kingdom of God and the governments of this world?  How should Christians relate to the government?  This Sunday Pastor Mark will continue the sermon series The Church and Politics by exploring these questions through 1 Peter 2:9-17 and other biblical passages

How can we avoid the "election infection" that seems to permeate our country every 4 years and instead remain centered on the Gospel?  That’s the key question we’ll seek to address over the next four weeks in our sermon series The Church and Politics.  Here, Pastor Josh kicks off the series with a message encouraging us to love unconditionally and pray for unity, even when we disagree politically.
