Rebekah Hargraves is the host of the Home and Hearth Podcast, which, up until recently, has always been mostly an interview-style podcast. Now, however, she is branching out into recording the fifth of her solo podcasts to talk today on the topic of patriotism and the Christian. This is a timely topic given that we are in the midst of an emotionally-charged election year, so on today's show she chats a bit about nationalism, the nationalization of Christianity, and what a believer's role is regarding patriotism.

What She Chats about in Today's Episode:

~The emotionally-charged election year we find ourselves in 

~What patriotism does and does not mean for us as Christians:

*Patriotism and being patriotic do not mean that we never call out our nation's problems. (think of God's example with us and our example with our children where if we love someone, we will point out their shortcomings in an attempt to call them up to greatness)

*Patriotism and being patriotic do mean that we want what is best for our country. And it is righteousness that exalts a nation.

*Being patriotic does not mean we seek to set up a theocracy in America

*Being patriotic does not mean that we can allow America or the preservation of America as we know it to become our idol

~The full meaning of the Hebrew word "tsedaqah" translated "righteousness" in Proverbs 14:34

~Our call (Acts 5:29) to obey God rather than man, while also respecting His institution of government (Romans 13)

~The reality that this country is not our home and was never meant to feel like it; our identity as but pilgrims passing through 

~What we have seen around the world and down through history regarding the direct correlation between a loss of freedom and an increase in persecution and a subsequent increase in strong and deepened faith among believers

~Our roles as good citizens and the importance for each of us to individually walk by the Spirit 

~The importance of not binding the conscience of our fellow believers; giving the Holy Spirit room to work

~And more!
