Episode 4: Render Unto God: The Christian Witness in a Shaken Democracy
🕊️ A Christ-centered reflection on power, division, and faithful witness in our time.
What does it mean to follow Christ faithfully in an age of political noise, deep division, and rising power? In this episode, we reflect on Jesus’ words:
“Render to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s” (Mark 12:17), and explore how they continue to shape the Christian witness in a shaken democracy.
Through Scripture, prayer, and quiet reflection, Rev. Ana (The Old Gray Moose) invites us to live with clarity, humility, and unwavering faith in the Kingdom that cannot be shaken.
✨ Key Takeaways:
Give God your full allegiance—above politics, platforms, or comfort.
You are a citizen of heaven, called to live as salt and light.
Faithfulness means praying for leaders, defending the silenced, and planting peace in your community.
💡 Invitation to Action: This week:
🕊️ Pray for one leader you disagree with.
🕊️ Speak up for someone being silenced.
🕊️ Remember—your faith is shaped by the Cross, not the headlines.
