How should Christians respond to a disappointing election cycle? In a world driven by chaotic headlines, Christians need clarity. Following a tough national election, Aaron Baer debriefs the results, unpacking what went wrong for conservative candidates and why believers cannot afford to abandon the political arena.
This episode explores the massive conservative losses across the country, the danger of throwing the baby out with the bathwater, and the lasting impact of recent policy wins like school choice and border security. Most importantly, Aaron turns to Romans 8 to remind us that Jesus is still on the throne, and no election result can separate us from the love of God. Discover how God uses all things for good and why your grassroots efforts in the public square are never meaningless.
