As the world becomes more and more divided over religion and politics, it’s vitally important for people of faith to be courageous about sticking to the foundations of their beliefs. So says Dr. Robert Jeffress, Senior Pastor of First Baptist Dallas and a Fox News Contributor. His new book “Courageous” is a ten-step guide to helping Christians develop strategies for not just ‘living’ but ‘striving’ in a world that has become more hostile to faith. For example, to “bend, but don’t break,” “learn from the past,” and number one, “don’t panic.” On this episode of Lighthouse Faith Podcast, Dr. Jeffress also talks politics. He’s one of President Donald Trump’s close spiritual advisors and supporters. He discusses the President’s mood right after he was acquitted in the impeachment trial, and also how to forgive those who persecute you. While many believe religion and politics live in two separate worlds, Jeffress makes it clear that faith is the fuel for any political position.
