It’s that time again—when Americans will be heading to the polls to decide which politicians will be tasked with leading the nation and their local communities. But in this especially contentious political season, some Christians are wondering if they should vote at all, especially when everything and everyone seems like the wrong choice.

After all, didn’t Jesus say this world was not our home?

Should Christians vote? What does the Bible say? Pastor Doug Batchelor and Amazing Facts present this inspiring, practical guide for Christians pondering their role in the political process.
