In our group, the focus is on getting to know God and not on - the political debates of the day.

Politics is nothing more than the way I live my life. I think of the Bible as the user's manual. I think because of technology, many people have a short attention span and don't take the time to explain the logic behind their beliefs. Our society puts top priority on expressing our ideas and letting emotion lead us, instead of analyzing in order to come to the truth.

Years ago, nobody dreamed that a government would force a church to fund an abortion or perform a homosexual marriage.

Now even the weather is politicized. I had to explain the term "nasty woman" to my girls.
