Do Christianity and politics mix? The answer isn’t as simple as a yes or no. While we should be concerned about the politicization of the American Church and the ways in which the pursuit of political power has undermined the Church's integrity as well as its witness, it's possible that Christians can fall into the opposite trap of quietism. It's not possible to remain neutral in the face of the world's injustice, so how do we strike the appropriate stance? In this sermon, we take a closer look at Jesus’ Sermon on the Plain in Luke 6 to explore the politics of Jesus, the platform of Jesus, and the plan of Jesus to usher in a new kingdom.
