The Bible's Guide to Surviving the Election

By: Billy Hallowell
  • Summary

  • Trump. Biden. Anger. Chaos. Frustration. The 2024 election is already bringing about a plethora of emotions, and the responses are only going to intensify as we get closer to November. But what does the Bible say, and how are Christians called to respond? Unfortunately, too many of us simply aren't asking or even considering. The tongue (and typing fingertips), as the Book of James reminds us, holds the power to set forests on fire, and it's easy to simply pour gasoline on the already out-of-control flames. But, aren't we called to something more? "The Bible's Guide to Surviving the Election" is Billy Hallowell's effort to cut through the chaos, emotion, strong opinions, and other distractions to focus on biblical tidbits that should force us all — regardless of political persuasion — to think a bit deeper before we respond or engage in the wild politics of the day.

  • God Absolutely HATES These 6 Things — Are You Guilty?
    Jun 6 2024

    While many believers looking to improve personality traits are prone to focus on the fruit of the spirit detailed in Galatians, a section of Proverbs 6 is an amalgam of jolting, convicting, and eye-opening, and it shouldn’t be ignored.

    These verses serve as a Scriptural gut-check worthy of being reflected upon by every believer in any and all seasons — but particularly in a highly emotional election season.. Rather than offering a set of positive parameters, Proverbs 6:16-19 details the “six things the Lord hates.”

    Here's how to avoid them.

  • PREMIERE: How Should Christians React to Trump’s Shock Conviction? The Bible’s Got an Answer
    Jun 3 2024

    It’s hard to imagine a more vivid way of describing something terrible, no-good, or diabolically problematic. When it comes to the flagrant flapping of lips, the Bible details the power of the human tongue like none other.

    And with the 2024 election upon us, most of us will be more tempted than normal to babbel or tap our keyboards without thinking.

    If we’re not careful, we’ll allow our words to run away and do real damage. Of course, this becomes increasingly problematic in the wake of former President Donald Trump’s conviction on Thursday, which sent shockwaves through the political stratosphere and further ignited an already insane cultural forest fire.

    A lot of us have emotions and opinions about what unfolded in the courtroom. But how do we engage? And, more importantly, where do we find the strength for self-control so we don’t burn down relationships and hurt others in the process? Well, it all starts with some old-fashioned self-control. Welcome to the premiere episode!
