Justice. Mercy. Faith.

Imagine what the Church would look like if congregations spent less time on policing public policy (whether it be “pro-life” or “social justice) and more time living a life in conformity with the mind of Christ? Daniel Headrick, associate pastor of Northside Drive Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia, suspects a church which followed that servant’s path would be utterly transformed in its missional and spiritual identity. He joins the podcast for a conversation with Christian Citizen editor Curtis Ramsey-Lucas on being a Christian citizen in an election year.
