In this conversation Aaron and Kevin have a conversation about finding peace in politics. 

When this podcast was recorded, it was a month away from the 2024 presidential election. In a political season that seems to be more polarized and divided than anything we've experienced, it may seem that this idea is foolish. But it's not. 

We have a theology that reminds us that God is sovereign over all things. In particular, within Lutheran theology, we hold to a doctrine called the Two Kingdoms. In this, we are reminded that the left hand kingdom is the kingdom of the world (politics, government, business, etc) and God is in charge of it. The left hand kingdom is God's way of ordering societies. The right hand kingdom is the kingdom of the church where forgiveness and grace are proclaimed and the Word of God is prominent. And, God is in charge of this as well. 

As citizens of the world, we live and operate in both kingdoms. But, how do we navigate them. What role does our faith play in our politics? And, vice versa? 

That's what we're talking about in this conversation today. 

As always, we hope you enjoy it!
