Real Talk FUMC Pearland
Welcome to “Real Talk", a podcast with an increased intentionality on having honest conversations about faith, church and the real conflicts that surround the complicated realities of today. We invite those who are curious, cautious and considering faith into deeper conversations, even if we don't always agree.

Church & Politics: What happens when they mix?
Rev. Thea is joined by Rev. Reggie Clemons and City of Pearland Mayor Kevin Cole for an honest conversation about how faith and politics are hard to divide, and what might happen if more Christ followers let Jesus lead the way they view how to organize the chaos of humanity.
Discussion Topics:
When and how was faith introduced into your life?
How does faith influence your politics today?
Should church and politics mix? Are they mutually exclusive?
Where have you seen church and politics mix poorly?
Is it possible to have our faith influence our politics positively
…and not let our politics influence our faith negatively?
What practices can help keep us balanced?
What hope do you have for our spiritual and political climate today?
What steps are you taking to help make those a reality?
What’s one piece of hope you would offer to anyone struggling today?
