What the 2020 Election Means

In this episode of Life and Books and Everything, Kevin, Collin, & Justin wrestle with the current state of the 2020 election. Why doesn’t it seem to be a clear victory for the Left or the Right? What does it mean for the church? Does your vote have an inherent meaning, or is it entirely dependent upon your intentions? And they do indulge in just the right amount of rank punditry.
