Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to another episode of the Christian Citizen Podcast. Today we’re joined by a man of the cloth, Pastor Ray Wilson.

We’re going to be talking about something that’s been on my mind, and I know it’s been on yours too - the role of pastors in civic engagement.

Now, folks, this isn’t just about Sunday sermons. We’re talking about pastors leading their flocks not just in faith, but in active citizenship. We’re talking about the importance of biblical values in governance and why Christians need to step up when it comes to voting and political participation.

We’re going to dive deep into some serious topics here - the biblical basis for voting, the impact of godly leadership in government, the historical significance of Christian involvement in politics, and the consequences of turning a blind eye to our civic duties.

We’re going to ask the tough questions:

1. What role should pastors play in encouraging their congregations to vote and serve in office?

2. How can we transform society with more godly leaders?

3. Why is it crucial to understand voting from a biblical perspective?

So, tune in, folks. Pastor Ray Wilson is here to share his insights and answer these questions. This is a conversation you don’t want to miss. Remember, being a good Christian isn’t just about what happens inside the church. It’s about being a good citizen in the world.

Ep 29. “Voting as Ministry: Biblical Love Votes” | How Voting Reflects Christian Love

September 12, 2024 • Pastor, Dave Welch.

Folks, in this new episode of the Christian Citizen Podcast, Dave Welch, our host, dives into the crucial importance of voter registration and civic engagement from a biblical perspective. Welch emphasizes that voting isn’t just a political act; it’s a ministry and a fundamental duty for every American citizen, especially Christians. Welch points out the frustration among church members and pastors over the disconnect between their faith and civic responsibilities. He stresses the necessity of being registered to vote, highlighting that many eligible voters remain unregistered, which undermines their participation in the democratic process. Citing Proverbs 24:11, Welch urges Christians to engage in issues like the sanctity of life and moral governance. He challenges pastors to educate their congregations about their civic duties, paralleling this with their roles in other aspects of life. Welch underscores that being a Christian citizen means understanding and fulfilling one’s duties in government and society, as ordained by God. In conclusion, Welch calls on pastors to prioritize voter registration and encourage their congregations to vote biblically informed ballots, framing this as an act of love for their neighbors and a ministry to God. He believes that if Christians engage in this way, they can positively influence their communities and the nation. So stay Tune and Engage with us.

Ep 28. “Sanctuary Cities for the Unborn: Pastors Stand Against Abortion” | Texas Pro-Life Stronghold

August 29, 2024 • Mark L Dickson, Jeremy File, Pastor, Dave Welch.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to a powerful episode of The Christian Citizen Podcast, where we tackle the critical role of the church in civic engagement, with a spotlight on the hot-button issue of abortion. Our hosts dive into the importance of voting biblically and consistently, calling on pastors and church leaders to rise up, run for office, and make a real impact in their communities. We break down the recent political landscape following the Republican and Democrat National Conventions, focusing on the intense debates over abortion policies. One of the standout topics is the groundbreaking concept of “Sanctuary Cities for the Unborn,” where cities like Amarillo are taking the initiative to restrict abortion at the local level, bypassing the sluggish state and federal legislation. Join us as we highlight the relentless efforts of Mark Lee Dixon, a driving force behind these ordinances in Texas. You’ll hear from local pastor Jeremy File, who is rallying his congregation to stand against abortion and champion the cause of life. This episode showcases the unity among Amarillo’s pastors, coming together to confront this vital issue, despite their doctrinal differences. We draw on biblical principles, such as Proverbs 6, which condemns the shedding of innocent blood, and stress the church’s duty to protect the vulnerable. We also address the challenges posed by pro-abortion activists and the urgent need for Christians to engage in local governance to influence decisions that shape their communities. Tune in for a compelling call to action for Christians to be proactive in their civic duties and stand unwavering in their beliefs about the sanctity of life.

Ep 27. “Tyranny Exposed: Government Overreach Threatens Church Freedoms” | Religious Rights Eroded!

August 16, 2024 • Pastor, Dave Welch.

Folks, you won’t believe the audacity of government overreach we’re uncovering in this episode of The Christian Citizen Podcast. Dave Welch, the fearless founder and president of the U.S. Pastor Council, joins us to reveal the chilling parallels between the tyranny in Nicaragua and the creeping control right here in Harris County, Texas. In Nicaragua, President Daniel Ortega is cracking down on churches and civil society groups with an iron fist, showcasing the worst kind of governmental abuse. But don’t think for a second that we’re safe from such overreach. Right here in Harris County, local officials are pushing policies that could strangle our church freedoms. Welch zeroes in on a recent fire code update that demands churches obtain an operational permit, slapping them with a $400 annual fee. This isn’t about safety, folks—it’s about control. It’s a calculated move to silence religious institutions and centralize authority. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who values their freedom. Tune in as Welch sounds the alarm on the need for vigilance and active engagement in local governance to protect our rights. Don’t let the government silence you—arm yourself with the truth and stand up for your freedoms! -LIKE & SUBSCRIBE-
