    Yes, we pray for the President of our country in our daily prayers and all of our liturgies and vespers services as well. Prayer is one of the greatest gifts of God.

    A Challenge facing our nation right now

    Thank you for your reply. Yes, we should take part in the voting process and do our duty as citizens of the "one nation under God." But we need not vote for an AntiChrist who's only purpose is to divide and conquer for his own ambitions, just because it appears (for now) that he's supporting...

    The Gospel of Christ, and political extremism, a challenge facing our nation right now (please read to the end)

    It is deeply disturbing to me to have witnessed the politicizing of Christianity in this nation. The conjoining of politics and faith have led to a polarization of our nation that has not been seen since just prior to the Civil War. In our having politicized Christianity, we've reduced the...
