Do Politics Belong In Church? | Pastor John Amanchukwu

Pastor John Amanchukwu joins Mike Slater on 'Politics By Faith' to passionately argue that the church must be deeply involved in politics, framing it as a moral and biblical imperative. He contends that the Bible is inherently political, addressing cultural issues like gender identity, education, and national values, and warns that silence from the church leads to its marginalization—just as it was during the pandemic when religious gatherings were deemed non-essential. Amanchukwu draws on historical and theological arguments, emphasizing that the separation of church and state was never intended to exclude religion from public life, but to protect the church from state overreach. He highlights the removal of school prayer and the rise of 'gender theory' and 'queer theory' in public education as deliberate attacks on Christian values, citing his film '22 Words' and personal experiences across 18 states where he has been arrested for protesting the teaching of transgenderism to young children. He calls for a national revival rooted in biblical truth, urging pastors, parents, and men to reclaim their roles in defending the family, truth, and the nation’s moral foundation.
