Tripp Fuller<\/span><\/strong> shared a great thought today via his blog:<\/p>\n

Listening to both parties each night has made me confident that the church really needs to quit outsourcing its vocation. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Makes a world of sense to me. Seems like the less the church does, the more the government feels it needs to step in to care for people. I can agree with much of the Democratic view of things because they see the need to step in and help the helpless. Yet, I still have to question if that’s really the government’s role. If the church really did their job, I think we’d be a lot closer to solving the world’s problems – than depending on the American Government to do so.<\/p>\n

Kevin Hendricks<\/a> and I seem to be asking some of the same questions<\/a> as well and trying to decide how someone who claims to be a follower of Christ also claim to put country first. Seems backwards to me.<\/p>\n

Tripp also shares several questions raised by Warren Carter<\/strong> (who is on the Homebrewed Christianity podcast<\/span> last week – with part 2 to be posted this week):<\/p>\n

Here are Carter\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s questions:<\/p>\n
