We are back with another Critical Issues episode. Today, we have a very special guest, our good friend Dom, here to help us think through a Christian’s relationship to firearms. Owning a gun is a serious matter because it is a weapon of deadly force. Here in the States, the 2nd Amendment recognizes the rights of its citizens to own firearms. So, should Christians own and carry guns? What does the Bible say about self-defense and our relationship with the State? 

There are Christians on both sides of the aisle who will fiercely defend their position. Some say it's our God-given right to have guns, while others say that owning such a deadly weapon is not in the spirit of a Christian ethic. Believe it or not, the Bible does give insight into this discussion and we want to provide those resources for you so that you can engage thoughtfully, as a Christian should. This is a bit of a longer episode so grab a snack or make some coffee. 

And for our word of the day, Josiah and Connor prove that some of us are on shaky ground…
