He's a bearded, conservative, evangelical pastor from Oklahoma, who drives a pickup. So, it should be obvious who he voted for in the 2020 election, right? Not so fast... Why did Pastor Jeremy Coleman vote for Joe Biden and how did that vote cause 70 thousand people to follow him on TikTok?

Listen in as Paul Swearengin talks to Coleman who shares about the problems he believe Donald Trump's presidency has brought to light and what the response of the church should be.

Many relationships have been disrupted by the politics of fervent Trump supporting friends and family. How do we continue to pursue relationship in the midst of this craziness? Promise Enlow grew up in the church, had parents who pastored in it and who are still powerful voices in the right-wing church today. Yet she doesn't let that stop her from loving her family well & vice-versa.

What's her secret? Listen in. Powerful message for Christians battling for relationship today.

Judas saw a God that had a thirst for political power and a nationalistic fervor. In pursuit of that, he is heralded as one of the all-time traitors to his culture. Is there any similarity in the Christian political culture of America today that would lead followers of God to make very poor decisions as they pursue political solutions to spiritual problems?

Paul Swearengin shares his thoughts about these actions in this WTH version of the Non-Partisan Evangelical - recorded live on YouTube and TikTok on January 4, 2021.

Hearts are being laid bare in the evangelical world. And it's not pretty - but it is important. The Church going forward and in the next generation may not look like the Church we’ve known. God might ask us to look at things differently than before.

The song may say "little Lord Jesus no crying he makes" but Christmas was not a sweet night, it was a time when goodness invaded a dark world. Paul Swearengin talks about the subversive act of Jesus coming and how Jesus can not to be a sweet, non-crying baby in manger, but instead came to overturn the social and religious order of his day.

This podcast is a broadcast from a Wichita Ignite Show of 12/16/20 with the St. Marks UMC Church in Wichita, KS.
