When Faith Meets Empire: The People of God and Political Authority
From Joshua’s conquest to Babylonian exile…
From the Roman Empire to Constantine…
From crusade and reformation to frontier expansion…
From constitutional liberty to modern polarization…
When Faith Meets Empire traces the long and often uneasy relationship between the people of God and political power.
Rather than offering partisan conclusions, Geoffrey “Willingheart” Schmitt invites readers into a careful biblical and historical reflection. Drawing from both Old and New Testaments, church history, American experience, and personal ministry stories, this study explores:
- Covenant and land
- Exile as refinement
- Christ’s redefinition of power
- The dangers of religious coercion
- The tension between patriotism and idolatry
- The call to live as ambassadors of another Kingdom
With honesty, humility, and pastoral warmth, Schmitt challenges readers to hold gratitude and repentance together, conviction and charity together, civic responsibility and heavenly citizenship together.
The central question is not whether Christians should engage public life.
It is how.
Between throne and Cross, the people of God are called to be salt, light, and ambassadors — faithful without domination, present without being absorbed.
This is not a book of easy answers.
It is a guide for thoughtful discipleship in complicated times.
