Quote of Note #185: Self-sacrificial Service

~ gachorpenning

“Proponents of American Christian nationalism argue that the church should fight to gain worldly power to promote their way of life and protect themselves from their enemies. Jesus, on the other hand, teaches us that power is to be used to self-sacrificially serve others, even our enemies.”

Caleb E. Campbell, Disarming Leviathan: Loving Your Christian Nationalist Neighbor. Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 2024, page 65-66.

I am a husband, father, and grandfather. The southwestern Pennsylvania is currently home, though I've called several other places home before this. I maintain a YouTube channel of Bible teaching videos and a podcast of Bible teaching audio. I like to make things out of wood and other materials. I like taking photographs and use a lot of them in my blog posts. For thirty-nine years, I served as a pastor of churches in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New York.
