Can God work through flawed politicians?

Can God work through flawed politicians?

Shortly after the election in November, a meme began floating around social media: "To think that God ordained a filthy-minded, adulterous, wealthy man with evil in his heart to preside over a nation challenges my self-righteous understanding. But He did, and that sinful man by grace gave us the Psalms. #KingDavid." Not surprisingly, the reaction was divided. But truth resides at the heart of these words. To misunderstand that politicians are human and flawed is to misunderstand human nature itself.

John Trandem, a lifelong Fargoan who has been involved in North Dakota politics as a Republican, along with being a business owner, husband, father, and committed Lutheran, understands the limits of our humanity, including when it crosses over into such spheres as politics. John will offer his thoughts today on the flawed state of humanity, and whether Donald Trump, whom he's met on several occasions, is too flawed to lead our country through its current troubles.
