After 22 episodes, founder and host Anna Claire Noblitt leaves the Dual Citizen community with a charge to reflect Christ right where you are. She reminds listeners that the only world-changing power comes from the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and we have been commissioned to make disciples on a personal level rather than to solve the world’s problems. Galatians 1:3-5 “ Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, 4who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, 5to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.”

Before we can love our neighbors and stand up against injustice, we must go to God and allow him to calibrate our hearts. Prayer is oxygen to the Christian, connecting us to our source of life and strength. As dual citizens, we have the opportunity to pray for our leaders, even politicians with whom we disagree. Do you believe in the power of prayer? We talk with Isaac Adams, founder of United We Pray, about the importance of prayer as a starting point for action. Learn more at https://uwepray.com.

As we seek to better understand civic responsibility this summer, awareness of national and global news is a great place to start. The Dual Citizen hosted an Open Table discussion group this summer to learn more about Middle Eastern conflict. A group of seven students gathers to discuss what civic responsibility means to them, and why awareness is a step towards loving and serving our neighbors well.

The Equality Act is a hot topic as it passes through the chambers of Congress, and in this Q&A conversation we hope to explain a controversial piece of legislation in an approachable and understandable way. Renee and Anna Claire discuss why this Act means so much to the left and the right, and hope that will consider for yourself which pieces of this bill are supportive or against your faith, and how to find a balance between acceptance and freedom to disagree.

Two letters in the New Testament specifically instruct women to be silent in a church setting. What does this mean for young women hoping to use their voices and gifts for God? This episode encourages young believers to focus more on the joy and freedom of serving in the church rather than be intimidated by these warnings. Anna Claire Noblitt and Renee Jones conclude that we can trust the Holy Spirit to show us opportunities to lead and share that do not contradict God’s design for men and women in the church.

With the 2020 presidential election right around the corner, this episode serves as a short encouragement to see this time as an opportunity to reflect Christ in our communities. In order to do so, Christians must first remember who we are, second remember our mission, and third remember who the true enemy is. As citizens of God’s kingdom first, we can point to the true King instead of idolizing political candidates.

Election season is upon us, and how do we choose people to represent us with whom we do not fully agree? Although every human and every human institution is broken, God's glory can be displayed through us and in the world around us as we seek to reflect his righteousness and justice. It is time to register to vote and let your voice be heard in your town, state, and country as we enjoy a uniquely democratic point in history.

In Season 2, we are addressing your pressing questions. This conversation is academic, and it requires humility because one reason we are so polarized as a nation is because it is much easier to complain, "Why can't everyone just think like me?" One look at politics in America shows it is not a stable foundation to build an identity upon, and thank God that our eternal citizenship is full of hope and peace.

Is the Church's pro-life battlecry half-hearted? If abortion was outlawed tomorrow, would our communities, churches, and homes be ready? Are we willing to be inconvenienced in order to actually defend life-- from conception to death?
