After an exhausting year of politics and the re-election of Donald Trump, what is a faithful way for Christians to navigate the next four years? Should we continue to immerse ourselves in political news, or is it better to disconnect from the media? And should Christians join the political fights online, or unplug to better serve our local communities? The Holy Post crew responds to articles by a number of Christians leaders addressing these questions. Then, New Testament scholar, N.T. Wright, is back to discuss the book of Acts. Wright says an understanding of ancient temples is the key to the message of Acts. Also this week—the origin of F-words.

I discovered The Holy Post in February, and now your mixture of light-hearted news and thoughtful commentary from a Christian perspective is the highlight of my week. But this week's episode left me feeling a little sad because I am really curious what Skye's hat said. I am blind so cannot see it on YouTube.
