How to Be a Good Citizen (E027)

Aug 24, 2017

What is required to be a good citizen?  What does it mean to be an American citizen? Meant for people of all our 25+ nations who currently listen to Podcast Seminary, this is a message targeted to Americans-- but a discussion that all citizen Christians should ask.

Specifically, I think Americans need to ask themselves "Is there any legitimate expectation of citizenship that we should give and receive from our fellow countrymen?" There was a time not long ago that it was an expectation for all American citizens to support the military that protects them; to full-throatedly say they love this Country; to support the Constitution and Bill of Rights; to heartily say the Pledge of Allegiance; to sing America the Beautiful, and to proudly stand and sing the National Anthem. Are those too much to ask as a starting place of American unity? If so, then what should be expected? That’s what we will discuss in this podcast, related to the reasonable and scriptural expectations of being a good citizen.
