  • Summary

  • Voting according to your faith values. We all do it. Yes, even an atheist. And that's one of big the problems with political polls and surveys measuring how much impact faith has on elections. They are based on the notion of institutional religion. But religion is not confined to a denomination or doctrine or congregation. Religion in its larger sense answers the big questions of life: "Why am I here? What's the purpose of my life? How do I treat people?" Morality and purpose. The answers to these questions, said one theologian, are at least implicitly religious because the answers have to be taken on faith, there is no scientific proof. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Jason Yates, president of My Faith Votes, explains the work ahead as his non-partisan organization endeavors to educate Christians about keeping a biblical worldview in the public square, not to be stymied by the demonization of Christianity which has grown larger and larger with the vitriol around "Christian Nationalism". Yates says, "They're trying to demoralize and shame, those of any beliefs that come against what they stand for... Too many people of faith have created a void and believe that lie that they should not be involved in the process... As a result, secular humanistic values and beliefs policies filled the void."
