The Binding of Each Other‘s Consciences

VOR Rewind - The Big Eva Compromise of the 2020 Election

As Hurricane Ida bears down on the Gulf Coast states, please be in prayer for the Story Family as Rich's sons are living in the path of the storm. Given the serious nature of the storm, we are not recording a program this week. Please enjoy this episode from last November when Chris and Rich talked about how evangelical elites laid the foundation for Christians to vote for the party of Joe Biden (whose platform is patently anti-biblical) while rejecting incumbent President Trump (who had fought for policies that favored Christian freedom, life, and liberty).
