WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT POLITICS?

Advertisement from LTS:
That's the subject of a day-long event at the Lancaster Theological Seminary on Saturday, September 27 from 9:30am to 3:30pm. The event is free, including lunch, and is open to the public. The purpose of the event is "to gather pastors, scholars, and laypersons to study and reflect on the Bible and its use in person's professional, congregational, and intellectual lives".

Various speakers, including Julia O'Brien from Lancaster Theological Seminary and others from seminaries throughout the country, will address such questions as:

How were the Bible writers responding to the politics of their times?

How can religious leaders best engage the political process while remaining true to their calling?

What does biblical theology tell us about political engagement?
