As we look ahead to this election year, we are reminded that the future of America is not determined by who we elect as president. Racism and poverty will not cease to exist because a person or party is elected or because policies are enacted; they end when God’s kingdom invades the earth. So how does that happen? How does God bring his kingdom? It’s through us! 

Each of us has the opportunity to be part of the change our country needs. When we allow Jesus to be king of our lives, our hearts are changed, and we live differently; we become conduits of his kingdom here on earth. His kingdom can change families, neighborhoods, cities, schools, hearts, and relationships. Hope for America is not found in the government or the political system; our hope is found in Jesus!
