About this episode

In this powerful discussion, Pastor Erwin Lutzer addresses the critical question many Christians face: How should believers approach voting when both candidates are flawed? He breaks down the relationship between faith and politics, explaining why Christians shouldn't withdraw from civic engagement.

Key topics covered:

- The biblical perspective on choosing between imperfect candidates

- Understanding Christian nationalism vs. biblical citizenship

- How to balance spiritual conviction with political responsibility

- The church's role in modern political discourse

- Why the "lesser of two evils" voting approach can be biblically sound

Pastor Lutzer shares insights from his book "Hitler's Cross" and discusses the dangers of both political overengagement and dangerous pietism. Learn why voting isn't just a right—it's a Christian responsibility.
