JUST WAR? GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR CHRISTIAN SUPPORT OF U.S. INTERVENTION

Segment 1: • Is America right to intervene? The Middle East crisis raises tough theological and political questions. • Distinguishing between national Israel and covenant Israel requires careful biblical thinking. • Todd introduces Just War Theory: legitimate government, last resort, just cause — but it’s not so simple. Segment 2: • The Just War debate gets even messier when we add goals, methods, and terms of peace. • Terror attacks complicate the moral landscape—how do Christians think clearly here? • Biblical principles demand wisdom, not just reactionary headlines. Segment 3: • A violent attack in Michigan stopped by brave church members — do you have a plan? • Churches must take serious security precautions in an increasingly hostile culture. • Evil doesn’t take Sundays off — wise leadership includes protecting the flock. Segment 4: • VBS has morphed — but should kids lead Sunday worship? • Entertainment-driven services may feel fun, but undermine biblical worship. • Worship isn't a Whoopty Doo Fest; it's about glorifying God, not entertaining people. ___ Thanks for listening!
