CHRISTIANS & THE BALLOT BOX
Do you think Christians obsess over politics and the Ballot Box to the detriment of the Great Commission?
Last week a listener raised that issue, so today we are going to talk about it.
Hi, I’m Brad Bright. This is the God is the Issue Podcast, where we show how God is the Issue—in every issue.

Last week a guy by the name of Randy took issue with my Memorial Day podcast. I suggested we could honor the fallen by praying for our country and by voting. He commented, “I think it’s our obsessive belief in the ballot box that has diminished the Great Commission for many Christians.” Do you agree or disagree with Randy? Does he have a valid point?
Mother Theresa invested her life in helping the dying poor of Calcutta to die with dignity because they were beings created in the very image of God. She was certainly obsessive about it. I’m glad she was. I suspect Randy is too.
William Wilberforce, a devout Christian who was a member of the British Parliament in the early 1800’s, lead the charge to end the slave trade throughout the British Empire. He destroyed his health in the process. He was obsessive about it. I’m glad he was.
I suspect Randy is too.
The Apostle Paul said, “To live is Christ!” That’s obsessive. I suspect Randy would agree that most Christians in America probably cannot relate to the Apostle Paul on this point. Their hearts are lukewarm.
Our primary calling as followers of Jesus is the Great Commission.
But as faithful stewards of everything God gives us, it does not stop there.
Randy, thanks again for your heartfelt comments. Your PASSION for the Great Commission is in the right place.
