Political idolatry
Dr. Timothy Paul Jones is a professor at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He joins the show today to lend his historical expertise to our conversation about political idolatry. This is the final installment of the series, so if you haven’t heard the others, we encourage you to check those out. Dr. Jones surprised us by quoting a lot of second and third century Christian thinkers about the freedoms we should extend to our neighbors. Truly there is nothing new under the sun!

ABOUT UWP
United? We Pray (UWP) is a ministry to help Christians pray and think about racial strife. We want to encourage Christians amid the strife to rely upon God in prayer. So our prayers can be informed, we strive to learn and write about race, racism and its effects, and theology. We aim to be biblical, beneficial, and clear in all our efforts. While we’re burdened for all racial strife, we focus on racial strife between Christians because of the unique privilege and stewardship God has given his people: to bear witness to Him and to love all people, especially one another (Gal. 6:10).
