About this episode

Give to help Chris make Truce


Well, we survived the 2024 US presidential election! But many people still feel anxiety as we head into the Christmas and New Year holidays. How can Christians prepare for a holiday season when politics will likely arise?


Chris Staron is joined by Karl Klemmer, Nick Staron, and Ray McDaniel at First Baptist Church in Jackson, WY to discuss these issues and more. Plus Chris talks about his own anger as a pedestrian as drivers have come close to hitting him. How do Christians respond when they are wronged? We also spend a lot of time talking about Romans 14 which encourages believers to love their brothers and sisters who struggle in their faith or who have convictions different than our own. Can verses about food sacrificed to idols teach us something about dealing with loved ones who are different than us?


Sources:

  • Romans 12-15 (mixed translations)


Discussion Questions:

  • Why is it important to come to a complete stop at stop signs?
  • Has anyone ever wronged you on the road? How did that feel? How did you react?
  • Do you get upset about things you can't change? What are some examples?
  • How can you adjust to not beat yourself up over things you can't change?
  • What are other examples of non-mission critical things we can give grace on (like food sacrificed to idols)?
  • Are there political issues that are mission-critical? Which ones are not? What are some that you can let slide in a conversation?
  • How do you prepare yourself to enter a stressful environment?
