ICE, State Power and the Imago Dei

Chris steps back from the daily outrage cycle to tackle a bigger question: Is there a difference between caring for someone personally and how the law should be written or enforced? Using a recent ICE shooting story as a case study, he explores how government power shapes human behavior, why politics is an extension of morality, and why treating people as image-bearers of God matters in public life. He also pulls in a classic libertarian argument from Marshall Fritz on robbery vs. taxation, touches on sphere sovereignty and localism, and closes with Jesus’ model of persuasion over coercion as a guide for Christian engagement.
