Summary

This week, Pastor Nate Wright is joined by Dr. Joe Boot and Dr. Michael Thiessen to help Christians think Christianly about the escalating conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States. Rather than reacting to headlines or repeating past debates about foreign wars, the conversation examines the issue through a Christian worldview—drawing on Scripture, sphere sovereignty, and the insights of Abraham Kuyper. What is the biblical basis for international law? Do nations have a right to defend themselves? And how should Christians think about war, treaties, and global conflict in a fallen world? The goal of this episode is simple: to help believers move beyond political talking points and think Christianly about international conflict, justice, and the responsibilities of nations under God’s law.
