According to a recent Barna study, only half of the people of faith plan to vote this November. However, according to Troy Miller, Christians have a moral and ethical duty to vote. Troy Miller is president & CEO of National Religious Broadcasters, an organization officially formed 80 years ago in 1944 to advocate for access to the airwaves for religious broadcasters. NRB is a nonpartisan, international association of Christian communicators to protect the free speech rights of their membership to speak biblical truth, and to foster excellence, integrity and accountability in the membership. Troy began by noting that there are 25 to 30 million evangelicals in America and about one-third of them didn't vote in the 2020 election. That was about 7 million voters in the battle-ground states where such states were decided by small margins. This means there's a large impact when Christians stay home and fail to participate. Also disturbing according to the Barna report is that nearly half of evangelicals don't follow or even know what the major issues are. Is this people simply putting their heads in the sand? Troy indicated that there's so much apathy among Christians because the Christian community has been bullied/shamed into believing that they shouldn't be involved in politics. Some go so far as to communicate that to be involved in politics is to abandon your faith while others call it sin. So it's not so much a case of people shying away from politics but instead it's about people purposely staying away from it.
