Perspectives is a series of essays on faith issues that face Christians today and is designed to foster personal reflection and group discussion. Flags are waving and soldiers are going off to war. Is allegiance to country as important as allegiance to God? What are we to do when the state asks us to do something that God asks us not to do? Where do our loyalties lie ultimately? David Miller calls on Christians to make God supreme in life, holding back from giving absolute allegiance to the state, even if to do so is unpopular.
