“The work of Politicians and Missionaries are often viewed as oil and water that just don’t mix; but what if I told you that they were more like flour and milk in need of its pastry chef. We’ve been told that politics and religion are the cardinal sins to talk about in the workplace and at the dinner table, but what if I told you that they were the backbone of all human existence regardless of the sphere of influence to which they operate.

In The Political Missionary: Embracing Politics from the Kitchen Table to the World Stage, Todd Robatin examines what he believes to be the Biblical mandate of the faith community to be actively engaged in all four spheres of politics: family, church, community, and government. Politics is about people in relationship with one another to make decisions that directly and indirectly impact the daily lives of everyone under its jurisdiction. If politics is about loving, respecting, and reaching people with truth and freedom, then we as people of faith must actively be involved in all manner of politics as Political Missionaries.
