**God has called you to be a steady presence of the love and power of Jesus. "A divided church cannot heal a divided nation."** Join Joseph Z and Pastor Scott Thompson in this insightful discussion as they address the church's vital role in politics. They warn against engaging in politics with anger and call for sincere prayer for leaders to unite the church in healing a divided nation.

Scott shares his perspective on the church's relationship with politics. He reveals that God calls us to be His ambassadors in this world, and wherever we find ourselves, we should recognize that God has placed us in that community for a reason. He asserts that the church is losing the cultural battle because we are not showing up as we should. He stresses that we should not narrowly view our calling as limited to the church, as we are also called to be a voice in our various communities.

Pastor Scott explains that the church is beginning to awaken to the understanding that we have a vital role to play in our communities. He emphasizes that there is a clear divine call and an anointing to be ambassadors and lights in our neighborhoods. This calling involves not only revivals but also reformation. He insists that God has called us to consistently embody the love and power of Jesus.

He expresses concern about our tendency to react only when we are angry, involving ourselves in politics with a spirit of anger. Scott emphasizes that if we want to have a voice in governance, we must approach it with a different spirit than the prevailing attitude in the world. He highlights the importance of sincerely praying for our leaders, regardless of their political affiliation. He then makes clear that a divided church cannot heal a divided nation.

Scott firmly believes that if we humble ourselves, repent of our sins, and earnestly seek God, He will hear us and heal our land. He is confident that a significant move of God will impact California in a way never seen before. This brings attention to his newly released book, "The Watchman's Call," which serves as a guide for every Christian who cares about their community.
