How Can You Find a Healthy Balance in Po...

BILLY GRAHAM EVANGELISTIC ASSOCIATION
About this episode

Politics can be a divisive subject. Out of fear, some pastors completely avoid the topic from their pulpits.  

On this episode of “The Elephant in the Room” series, I discuss how a church can find a healthy balance of discussing political issues without forsaking the Gospel. I have a conversation with Gary Hamrick, pastor of Cornerstone Chapel in Leesburg, Virginia, who found himself in the middle of the cultural and political battle without going to look for it. The battle showed up at his front door.  

He’s an example of a godly man who’s stood up and fought for truth, without worrying about what the consequences might be. 

I hope this conversation encourages you to stand for truth—and exercise your freedom to vote.
