Jesus In the Media

I will interrupt our normally scheduled content to bring you a feature that I like to call 'Jesus In the Media' where I will periodically highlight a reference to Christ in the so-called popular media.

A lot of people say that you should not mix religion and politics. I have never subscribed to that belief. I have always thought that, as Christians, unless we allow our religious beliefs to influence our political beliefs that our political beliefs are garbage. The reason I say that is because I believe that our Christianity ought to spill over and infiltrate every aspect of our lives. With that said, today's clip is not necessarily the sort of religious-political mix that I was hoping for. I hope you will view the clip and share your thoughts afterwards.



Is this appropriate? How does this make you feel as a Christian? Does it motivate you to align yourself with the congressman's beliefs?

If you're interested, here is an article containing a little more background information.
