    As we are deep into a contentious presidential election season, it may be time to ask ourselves some challenging questions.
    As disclaimer, I have a unique history and perspective on this subject. I have a Master’s Degree in Political Management from George Washington University, ran numerous Congressional campaigns, was elected to public office myself… and have degrees in theology and Bible and am back in ministry.
    Yesterday, I recently shared a controversial short video asking if Donald Trump was a false god? Of course, I wasn't claiming he was. The question was, are some Christians making one of him unintentionally? I shared some people are claiming Trump and Jesus' trials were comparable. Some of the comments and responses may have answered my question.

    The rise of the new religion in America is reshaping politics as we know it!
    Over the last several decades, the religion of politics has been taking over Christianity. Today, let's explore the growing influence of politics as the new religion in America, overshadowing Christianity. Let's dive into the clash between faith and political beliefs, and how this shift is impacting the church and our faith in Jesus Christ. Watch now to understand the complexities of this transformation and its implications for the nation and the church.
    So, I ask you, can politicians change your life or solve your problems?
    What's so wrong with praying for our enemies?
    Is the an equivalency between Trump's criminal trial and Jesus'?
    What does the Bible say about our hearts, minds, and attitudes and how we should respond to those who disagree with us?
    I will share my personal story with you of faith and my experience in politics running conservative Republican congressional campaigns. What did I learn? How did what I learn change the way I viewed politics and our faith?
    Let's dive in...
    I also want to share with you that I've started a new virtual Bible study on the foundations of Christianity in the Old Testament. If you want to learn more, click here: faithandtrust.org/personal-bi...

    Yes, Trump is a very controversial topic in my family. Some think he is the best thing to happen in politics in a long time, and some literally start yelling at his name, believing that he is the cause of all our problems since Reagan. Personally, I could care less about politics. All of us need to pray for our nation and her leaders. We need to ask God to give us and our leaders the integrity to make the right decisions. I've just found your channel and want to thank you for speaking up for our Christian lives and faith.

      I am so glad you found my channel! I've seen a lot of families fight and stop talking to each other over Trump. Many of the with deeply held Christian beliefs in our Lord Jesus Christ. It shouldn't be this way. Which brought me to the point of the video... We are citizens of heaven. Not of Earth. Thank you again for your comment. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. I hope you'll engage with me more through my other videos. God Bless You! ~ Pastor Don
