“Keep your religion out of politics.”
We’ve all heard it, but that phrase has quietly reshaped the Church and silenced believers in every arena that matters.
In this episode of the Love Questions Podcast, PJ continues the conversation with Dave Pellowe, founder of Church and State and The Good Sauce to unpack why faith must re-enter public life.
They explore:
🔥 Why pastors avoid political conversations (and why that must change)
🔥 How the Gospel intersects with politics without becoming partisan
🔥 The cultural cost of silence inside the Church
🔥 Why “freedom of religion” has been twisted into “freedom from religion”
🔥 How believers can think critically, engage wisely, and speak truth with love If you’ve ever wondered whether faith belongs in politics or what happens when it’s pushed out this conversation will challenge you to rethink everything.
