Saturday, Nov. 11 at 7:30pm at Telkwa Community Church

Should a Christian be involved in politics, or avoid the arena altogether? Should a Christian engage politics differently because of their faith in Jesus Christ? If so, how? Join us to hear Dr. Iain Provan lead us in a non-partisan talk and discussion concerning the (sometimes fraught) relationship between faith and politics.

  • Saturday, Nov. 11, 7:30pm
  • Hosted at Telkwa Community Church (located beside Castle Lumber in Telkwa, 1348 Hwy 16)
  • Suggested donation: $10
