Books about the political scene are beginning their four-year-cycle of pouring out. The aim is to influence the electorate. I don’t know the numbers of influence. In darker moments I wonder if the electorate is influence-able. Seriously, will Tim Alberta’s new book shift many Christian nationalists to moderate? I suppose some will shift.
Thank you for this wise guidance. Can you recommend any books or other resources that would be helpful in sharing with a congregation the biblical rationale for this approach?
On a related matter, considering the rapidly growing number of Spanish-speaking believers and seekers in the US, do you know of anyone who is writing in or translating commentaries into Spanish that reflect a high view of Scripture, scholarly excellence, and accessibility (I know, that's a lot) -- such as your Everyday Bible Study or NT Wright's ... For Everyone series? Are you aware of anyone or any group that might be thinking about the exciting challenge of providing such resources? I work with a growing Spanish-speaking congregation and know others who do, as well. In the interest of faithful biblical formation -- as opposed to, for example, faulty formation in "Christian" Nationalism, which seems to be a serious temptation for many immigrant communities -- we need solid and accessible Bible study resources.
Thank you ,thank you. thank you , Scott , this is spot on. May I share this on my social media page? You are correct,we are getting into the crazy cycle already.

Excellent. Thank you, Scott.
This thoughtful piece on thinking Christianly about politics and elections is most helpful. We probably to hear more about worldview building.
