Processing

Should Christians stay out of politics, or is our involvement more important than ever?

On this episode of the Processing Podcast, Logan sits down with Minnesota State Representative Ben Bakenberg to discuss the intersection of faith, politics, and the responsibility Christians have in shaping their communities. From the realities of working across party lines to the pressure politicians face to compromise their convictions, Ben shares an inside look at what really happens in government. Together, they unpack why local elections matter, how biblical values influence political decisions, and why your vote may carry more weight than you realize.
