So you know how we make a point not to talk about politics on this show? Well, today we're dedicating an entire episode to it (two, actually if you count part 2)! Political tensions seem to be at an all time high, and conflicts between well-meaning, Bible-believing Christians seem to be on the rise. With instant access to news in real-time and social media providing everyone with a platform to express their views, it's no wonder. So this week we're going to take a look at the role of prayer in politics. Even we were surprised at some of our conclusions! This podcast is sponsored by Faithful Counseling.

If you have children anywhere in your sphere of influence, you won't want to miss this great conversation about engaging with them in fun, meaningful ways to bring Christ front and center! Valerie would like to thank Erin Loechner from whom she first heard the "could not should" idea in a 7-minute MOPS video called "Changing the Rules."
