LIVE - Should I Pledge Allegiance to Trump? Power, Monogamy, and the Future of the Church

How should Christians respond to political loyalty, personal relationships, and shifting cultural norms—all while seeking to follow Jesus faithfully? In this candid and often hilarious live Q&A episode, Mike Erre tackles big listener questions about political allegiance, discerning God's will for big decisions, the biblical view of monogamy, and what the future might hold for the American church. With Andy chiming in remotely and Seth Eery making a surprise (and adorable) appearance, this episode is as insightful as it is heartwarming.

Key Takeaways: • Power and Image-Bearing – What it truly means for humans to rule the earth as divine image-bearers, and why any authority used outside of God’s purposes isn’t worthy of our allegiance. • Should Christians Pledge Allegiance to Trump? – A thought-provoking explanation of why power should only be followed when it reflects God's shalom and justice. • Discerning God’s Will for Your Future – Why God may not always have a “right” choice for every decision and how to wisely discern what's best through doors that open and close. • Is Monogamy Normal or Just a Social Construct? – A biblical and neurological argument for the normative design of monogamy, plus personal reflections on desire, covenant, and fulfillment. • The Church in Hospice? – A powerful metaphor from a listener about whether the American church is dying or being reborn—and why many are rediscovering Jesus apart from megachurch culture.

Guest Highlights: • Seth Eery – Mike’s son drops by to bring pure joy with PE updates, snack talk, and inspired jumping jacks. • Andy Bearss – Live from the digital backstage, Andy jokes with Mike about teaching Pilates, the power of Facebook Live, and sings (sort of) for his birthday.
