A Christian’s Guide to Surviving an Election Year

3. Advocate for Justice and Mercy Micah 6:8 reminds us, “He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Use your voice to advocate for policies and leaders that promote justice and mercy. Support initiatives that protect the vulnerable, care for the poor, and uphold the dignity of all people. Let your actions reflect God’s heart for justice and compassion.

4. Foster Community and Reconciliation Romans 12:18 encourages us, “If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.” In a polarized climate, be a peacemaker. Build bridges with those who have different views. Promote dialogue and understanding within your church and community. Work towards reconciliation and healing, demonstrating the love of Christ in every interaction.

Living Out Our Faith in the Public Square

As Christians, our ultimate allegiance is to Christ and His kingdom. While politics is important during our time on Earth, it is not the ultimate solution to the world’s problems. Our hope is in Jesus, and our mission is to make Him known through our words and actions. By praying fervently and acting thoughtfully, we can reflect His love and truth in the public square, bringing light and hope to a world in need.

Let us commit to being prayerful, informed, and compassionate throughout this election year. May our engagement be marked by humility, respect, and a deep commitment to justice and mercy. And above all, may we seek to honor God in all that we do, trusting that He is sovereign and working all things for His glory and our good.
