EP125: Doug Stuart of Libertarian Christian Institute - Gracearchy with Jim Babka

Is Jesus really Lord? What would that look like like? The answer may surprise you.  Doug Stuart from the Libertarian Christian Institute joined Gracearchy with Jim Babka.  Jesus Is Lord should be a message of hope, not a partisan message of division. So we encouraged Doug to grapple with the questions like...  Shouldn't more Christians lead to more peace? Or does more Christians lead to more war? As a result, much of our conversation had us driving toward a consistent ethic of Christian political thought.
