"Politicians, pundits and even preachers paint the world in black and white. You’re forced into tidy boxes. You are labeled a conservative or liberal, Republican or Democrat, for or against the war, pro-this or pro-that. Entire states are painted as red or blue. Candidates use slogans to demonize their opponents and energize their base of support. The election cycle seems perfectly designed to polarize our country.

Do you ever wonder if life was meant to be more than just black and white? Are you hungry for solutions that don’t fit into a 60-second sound byte? Do you miss civility and thoughtfulness in politics? This sermon series is for anyone who answers “yes” to these questions, no matter where they fall in the political spectrum."
