Episode 7: Was Jesus a Republican or a Democrat?

What happens when faith becomes intertwined with politics?

In this episode of You've Heard It Said, Jared and Bill tackle one of the most divisive and controversial topics facing the modern church: Christian nationalism.

Can a Christian faithfully follow Jesus without aligning with a political party? Why do so many churches seem closely connected to one side of the political aisle? And what happens when political loyalty begins to shape our understanding of faith?

The conversation explores:

• What Christian nationalism actually means

• Why political viewpoints can create tension in churches

• Whether pastors risk their careers by challenging political assumptions

• The relationship between Christianity and American politics

• Charlie Kirk's legacy and the debate surrounding his influence

• Why many evangelicals align with the Republican Party

• Whether Jesus would fit comfortably into either political party

• The danger of elevating political figures above the mission of Christ

• How Christians can remain committed to the Kingdom of God without becoming captive to political tribes

Jared shares personal experiences of being pressured to adopt specific political positions in ministry, while Bill argues that neither political party fully represents the teachings of Jesus.

Whether you're politically conservative, politically progressive, or somewhere in between, this episode asks a challenging question:

Have we confused the Kingdom of God with the kingdoms of this world?
