Mr. Teigen, I'm not sure whether you believe you are espousing the position of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod, or whether these are your own opinions. The Missouri Synod has some excellent resources for appropriate involvement of the Church and church people in the area of God's Kingdom of the Left, or Kingdom of Power. A book by the Commission on Theology and Church Relations entitled "Render Unto Caesar" might be of some help.
As to the participants on the program, as one who has been involved locally and in Washington through the years on the topics to be addressed, this group will do just fine!
