As Christians, we are meant to be engaged citizens. [Image description: Woman smiling holding happy child on her back. ]( Dear Friend, There are 13 days until the election. A [recent poll reported]( that 41 million Christians, 32 million who regularly attend church, plan to sit out this election. When asked why, 68 percent say that they are not interested in politics. These are shocking numbers. I acknowledge that politics isnât the most important thing, but we ought to correct the notion that politics isnât part of the larger arena by which God can orchestrate things for His glory. Politics matter because politics inform policies that impact real human people who are created in the image of God. As Christians, we are meant to be engaged citizens. One of the ways we do that is to exercise the right and privilege to vote. As a non-partisan organization, neither Bread nor I will recommend which candidates you choose, but we did create a guide to help you choose at www.bread.org/vote. Voting is important. Itâs also only the beginning of how Christians can work toward Godâs Kingdom through community with each other. I invite you to take 3 minutes to [read more on our blog](. However you vote on November 5, I hope you keep at the forefront of your mind the two greatest commandments: to love God and to love each other. [Read Blog]( Sincerely, [Rev. Eugene Cho] Rev.
