In this episode David and John sit down with Tumiso Mfisa, from the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) Student Command, and Kwena Mashela from the Democratic Alliance Student Organisation (DASO)to discuss the role which their Christian faith plays in their political activisim.

How do you deal with opposition to your Christian faith in your political parties? How has the gospel shaped your political concerns and your attitudes towards social justice?
