That kind of spread is rare these days — and it’s the point. This course isn’t about finding a middle ground. It’s about rooting ourselves more deeply in Jesus, so we can relate to others (including those we might disagree with) in a way that looks more like Him.

How it works

Our free course will guide you through six videos, interactive sessions, and reflections questions to help you focus less on the "what" of politics — “What policy, party, or candidate is most Christian?” — and more on the "how" of politics so we can ask "How do I relate to others — including those I might disagree with — so that I better reflect Jesus?”

Here's a few tips on how to get started.

What people are saying

The course teed up some honest and practical discussions about how we can live out Jesus’ way in our city and respond with grace amidst so much negativity. I’ve already recommended it to several people across the political spectrum!

2024 Course Participant

Over the past few years, I’ve come to realize that religion and politics are two areas we need to be able to talk about in our close circles. The course has been a great way to invite friends and family into a learning space.

2024 Course Participant

I have felt so ostracized from people at my church since 2016. I am afraid to interact with people because I was aggressively and unexpectedly attacked after the election in 2016. The After Party has helped me to think through how to express my opinions and interact with people who disagree with me

2024 Course Participant

Like many, I’ve felt politically homeless since 2016. The After Party content has helped to affirm my commitment to pursue a different kind of political engagement in the face of immense pressure toward partisanship.
