Replay – James Spencer: Wise as Serpents, Harmless as Doves in the Political Arena
Manage episode 435403346 series 2943844
[Original airdate: 4/19/24] Mary welcomes back author and theologian James Spencer, currently serving as President of D. L. Moody Center, an independent non-profit organization inspired by the life and ministry of Dwight Moody and dedicated to proclaiming the gospel and challenging God’s people to follow Jesus. In addition, he leads the Shine Bright Project which seeks to mobilize God’s people to be and make disciples. James is the author of Useful to God: Eight Lessons from the Life of D. L. Moody, Thinking Christian: Essays on Testimony, Accountability, and the Christian Mind; and he contributed to The Moody Bible Commentary, and The Moody Encyclopedia of Messianic Prophecy. His latest book, Serpents and Doves, is a thoughtful guide for Christians who may wish to engage in politics but not lose sight of bearing witness to Jesus, and our unique task of pointing to and glorifying God. Christians are often at odds not only about general political engagement, but whether or not to even bother to vote. And of course, politics should never divide churches or families, but all too often this is the case. An informative hour addressing tough questions.
