The Bulletin
Intro
This chapter explores a devotional from Christianity Today centered on the themes of Advent, offering reflective readings on the birth of Jesus. It also introduces the Christian College Guide, designed to help families navigate college admissions and financial aid for Christian institutions.
Let’s talk about the election.
The Bulletin welcomes guests Michael Wear (Center for Christianity and Public Life), Harvest Prude (Christianity Today), Justin Giboney (AND Campaign), Nicole Martin (Christianity Today), and Marvin Olasky (author and senior fellow, Discovery Institute) to discuss the results of the 2024 presidential election. We cover general election results and what the voting tells us about constituents; how the results will affect issues of human dignity; and, finally, what the future holds for democracy.
