Politics—a word that can make a room feel tense in an instant. Questions like, "Who are you voting for?" or "What is your stance on X policy?" can immediately create division and judgment. But what if we told you that the world we live in is confusing political identity with religious identity? Or that who you vote for doesn't determine who you are as an individual? On this episode of Everday Theology, Brandon, Jacob, and Ravae have an honest conversation about politics in the hope of helping address the discomfort this season brings and ultimately point you to a kingdom and a ruler far greater than one here on earth.

*If you have questions about navigating this political season, we encourage you to connect with one of our 14 locations locally. Many of our campuses are providing in-person conferences or classes to help you during this season. To find a campus near you, visit woodsidebible.org/locations.
