In a world where politics often feels like the ultimate battleground, this series reminds us that our true allegiance lies with Jesus, the Lion of Judah. Follow the Lion dives deep into what it means to prioritize the Kingdom of God above political affiliations. While we may live in a world divided by party lines, this series emphasizes that we don’t follow the elephant or the donkey—we follow the Lion.
