S3E7 – School Boards and Spiritual Warfare

S3E7 – School Boards and Spiritual Warfare

Author: Governed by God November 30, 2022 Duration: 37:07
On this week's episode I share about my recent experience speaking at a Central Bucks School Board meeting. With a packed crowd and 35 total speakers, it was a long evening. Despite my nervousness, I thought it went well. After reading my speech on the show, I discuss some unexpected things that I experienced - both good and bad. I finish the show by playing a clip of another speaker, who was a local reverend and an ally to the LGBTQ+ community. I address some of the odd arguments he made, including his twisting and abuse of the Ten Commandments. 01:25 - Law of the Day: Luke 4:1-12 (Jesus in the Wilderness) 09:30 - My school board meeting experience. As always, if you have any law/government related questions, feel free to email me at thegbgpodcast@gmail.com, and I will be happy to address them on the program. Thank you and God bless!

How should a person of faith understand the world of laws, politics, and civic duty? Governed by God explores that very question, offering a thoughtful and scripture-based examination of civil government and our role within it. This isn't about partisan politics, but rather a foundational look at how biblical principles intersect with the structures of human authority. Each episode digs into topics of law and civics, seeking to frame contemporary issues through a timeless lens. The host welcomes engagement, often addressing listener questions directly in the show, which adds a personal and practical dimension to the discussions. If you've ever wondered how your spiritual convictions inform your view of citizenship, justice, or societal order, this podcast provides a space for that exploration. Tune in for conversations that are both intellectually grounded and deeply rooted in Christian thought, challenging you to consider the intersection of divine truth and human governance.
