In The Equipping Group’s “Redeeming Politics” course, Kaitlyn Schiess helped redefine “politics” from today’s common perception. She helps us rightly see politics as a concept that was created by God, and that has become broken because of sin, but that can be hopeful because in Christ, God is reconciling all things to himself. Because of Jesus’ work, there can be restoration — in part now and more fully in eternity — even in the realm of politics! In light of that renewed view of politics, we can see politics through the lens of the story of God.
