A Blue Wave Swept the Midterms, but Jesus Is Still on the Throne

The morning after a midterm election that brought sweeping Democratic gains, Brian From pushes back on social media posts treating the results as either God’s defeat or a triumph. He reminds listeners that Jesus wasn’t on the ballot, that evangelicalism is a movement rather than a voting bloc, and that Christians should pray for every leader, whether they voted for them or not. He suggests that voters’ frustrations over gas and grocery prices likely drove the results. Brian finds “AI resurrections” of deceased loved ones unsettling, and shares Jen Wilkin’s response to Lifeway Research data showing many churchgoers lack basic Bible knowledge. He walks through 12 theses on what it means to be human and explains the Reformation principle of sola scriptura. In the second hour, he relates to a Wall Street Journal report on 40-somethings resisting reading glasses, reflects on the end of his daughter’s high school volleyball career, and highlights a Florida church plant that meets at a shooting range. He imagines a conversation with James, the brother of Jesus, shares advice on avoiding the twin pitfalls of debt and hoarding, and closes with Randy Alcorn on good works that flow from God’s grace.
