In this week's sermon, Pastor Jacob Michalski explores the complex relationship between Christian citizenship in heaven and earthly citizenship, particularly examining how believers should relate to governing authorities. Pastor Jacob discusses Paul's teaching that Christians should submit to governing authorities, pay taxes, and show respect and honor to leaders because all authority comes from God. He acknowledges the tension this creates, especially in politically divided times, and shares a personal story about how meeting a state senator who knew his late father helped him see politicians as human beings rather than just political figures. He leaves us with a challenge to humanize political leaders by learning about them and praying for them, regardless of political affiliation.
