A public servant can learn much about debating skills from this week’s Bible passage. Observe how the desperation of Jesus’ enemies impelled them to publicly discount the Lord’s credibility.

The legitimacy of the Christian faith rests on the finished work of Christ on our behalf.

Nearly every public servant who has his or her ear to the ground knows that the Bible enjoins individuals and nations to bless Israel.

Without love as the center of your faith, your trajectory in office will be less than it could be otherwise.
