It’s no accident that we produced the Difficult Conversations series during an election season, with its heightened tensions and palpable polarization. As part of this podcast series, NAE President Walter Kim takes a few minutes to speak to this moment following the election.

The NAE calls on all Americans to join in praying for our newly-elected leaders, including President-elect Donald Trump, Vice President-elect J.D. Vance, and all those chosen by voters to serve in Congress, state and local offices. NAE President Walter Kim said, “Elections inevitably produce winners and losers. We pray for God’s guidance and blessing on those who have won, that they will be good stewards of the responsibilities entrusted to them, and that they will listen and speak to all Americans, including those who feel left out or unheard. We pray for consolation for those who lost their races, as they seek new ways to constructively bless the nation with their time and talents.” Read our full statement: https://lght.ly/2fon61a

If we’re all reading the same Bible, why do Christians disagree when it comes to politics? And why have so many Christians in America given up on voting altogether? In Ep. 5 of Difficult Conversations, we hear from pastors and leaders about what this election season has been like for them, and we gain insight on a hopeful, peacemaking path forward. Featuring Kaitlyn Schiess, Brent Leatherwood, Derwin Gray, Christina Edmondson, Agustin Quiles, Eric Huffman, The Story Church, Brandon Doss.

"And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly, to love mercy and to walk humbly with God.” These words from Micah 6:8 not only call followers of Christ to pursue justice, but also express the heart of God for justice. But why is justice work so difficult to pursue together? How can we engage in conversations that arise in broader society on difficult topics, such as critical race theory, policing, redlining and other issues, in a way that honors God? We are hosting a webinar on November 14 at 2pm MT/4pm ET with Denver Seminary to explore how Christians can pursue justice together and model how believers can engage differences through respectful conversation. Will you join us? The webinar is free, but registration is required. https://lght.ly/3h1oe63

Regardless of the outcome of this or any election, American evangelicals remain committed to the biblical call to love our neighbors – including our immigrants neighbors. A few weeks ago, we joined with evangelical leaders from across the country to send a letter to Vice President Harris and President Trump affirming core evangelical views on immigration. Guided by key biblical principles, we affirm the dignity of all people, support secure borders, and oppose policies that separate families. ICYMI, you can read and sign the letter here: https://lnkd.in/etijq82u World Relief #immigration

Here are a few responses: “There is only one gospel that saves, and it didn’t come out of a courthouse in Pennsylvania; it came from an empty tomb in Jerusalem. Our true king reigns from the right hand of God forever and ever. This election, I’m praying that the Church would truly believe that.” -J.D. Greer, pastor of The Summit Church “A nonpartisan, unified, positive and rational voice to come from our evangelical family that stands out against the polarized rhetoric that is dividing our nation.” -Rocky Rocholl, president of Fellowship of Evangelical Churches "Healing, restoration and acceptance of whatever God ordains as part of his plan. He is in total control regardless of the outcome.” -Tami Heim, president and CEO of Christian Leadership Alliance Read more here: 👇
