Practicing Civic Discipleship

The polarization and confusion among Christians in this moment have left many unsure about how to pursue faithful engagement in public life. Some wonder if they would be better off simply tuning out politics and retreating to more private spheres, while others have grown more convinced that extreme times merit extreme responses.
So what does it mean to follow Christ in the public square? What practices - for individuals, churches, and communities - encourage civic discipleship? How can we be formed to exhibit and embody Christian virtues in a way that reflects our primary citizenship in the kingdom of God?
We hosted an Online Conversation with Walter Kim and Adam Taylor on May 17 to explore how we can connect discipleship with our participation in public life.
