Beyond the Ballot

An Eight-Week Curriculum taught by Shaun D. Lewis

I have been blessed with the opportunity to teach God’s Word to our political leaders in Illinois. Throughout the last 11 years I have often thought what God’s Word says about politics and government. Why does government exist? What did God ordain government to do? How should I respond?

This class is the culmination of my ministry with CSM, and I am deeply grateful for your interest. On this page you have access to the curriculum, PowerPoint files and audio recordings of the class as I taught it at Southern View Chapel in 2018. I hope the questions stimulate further thought.

My prayer is that these classes will: (1) give you a more biblical grasp of government, (2) encourage you to submit to your secular authorities, and (3) move you to pray more fervently for political leaders. 

I hope these eight lessons will be a rich blessing in your life!
