The SkyePod

The day after the 2024 election, Skye is joined by Producer Mike Stralow and CEO Jon Houghton to respond to people's sent-in questions and live chat messages. He discusses how people who aren't happy with the result of the race can grieve and process the results—and why no matter where you are politically, you need to intentionally seek a church community.

Chris Crawford, a policy strategist with Project Democracy, joins this edition of The SkyePod to talk about the upcoming election. How have the last few years changed how elections look? Why is disinformation such a threat this year? And why does Skye go to a Chinese food restaurant every year on election night?

Skye gives a message called "God is Not a Divine Vending Machine," originally written and recorded for the Chicago Fellowship. Do we trust God's character or are we just trying to control him? And how can people perform miracles and cast out demons yet not be close to Jesus?
