As we approach another general election in the United States, the country is more divided than ever. Lines aren't just drawn in the sand; they're etched in stone. There are Red States and Blue States, Republicans and Democrats, conservatives and liberals. And the rhetoric flows hot and heavy on both sides — on TV, on the radio, on social media and, unfortunately, even in some of our churches, dividing friends and families so that politics is a topic that some think is better avoided.

In the midst of this, we can get so caught up in winning that we overlook the most important thing: What does God say about all of this?
