A surprise general election brings with it temptations to grumble and divide. How can we help our churches to think "Christianly" about the election as they come to vote? How can we keep unity even when our political opinions may differ?

On this episode of In:Dependence, Adrian Reynolds (FIEC Head of National Ministries) is joined by Simon Calver (The Christian Institute) to discuss the general election, biblical principles on voting, and how to disagree well with other Christians.

You can get the show notes and more resources for church leaders on the FIEC website.
