If you feel uncertain about politics you’re not alone. Studies show that 65% of people feel upset when they think about political issues, while only 4% feel excited. Yet, as Christians, we are called to engage with the world around us, including politics.

Should Christians Avoid Politics? is a brand-new video course from Summit Ministries designed for anyone reluctant to participate in political conversations. This course offers a thoughtful, biblical approach to understanding political engagement without pushing any partisan views.

What you’ll discover:

• How to approach politics with a biblical perspective.

• Practical guidance on how Christians can be good citizens.

• Straightforward, accessible content for small groups or personal study.

Whether you're looking for clarity on tough issues or want to explore your role as a citizen of both heaven and earth, this course is the perfect starting point. All you have to do to access this content is sign up for a free account with Summit Talks.

Christian Counseling Associates (one of the Center's ministry partners) featured our Executive Director, Dr. D. Merle Skinner, on their podcast, titled "Christian Education is Back."

Christian education is a very important conversation for us to have as Christian schools are places where kids can be surrounded by traditional values, truth, and the space they need to simply just be a child, so the podcast does cover a lot about the topic of Christian education, BUT it is jam packed with a lot of great content and covers much more than just a conversation about Christian education. In this podcast you'll hear Dr. Skinner & Dr. Rich Hoffman discuss things like....

• public school, christian/private education, and current trends seen in schools that kids are facing
• current political and legislative happenings surrounding Christian education and school choice
• the importance of worldview
• mental health crisis
• Christian counseling, current trends seen in this field, and how this relates to students today
