Following governing authorities is becoming more difficult in the Western world. The Christian perspective encourages Christians to submit to authorities in passages like Romans 13:1-7, but it may feel difficult to submit when leaders seem unreliable, societal morals are slipping, and poor decisions are made. This devotional booklet will help provide a broader perspective to submission. It will consider the way that Paul wrote Romans 13:1-7 and the way that Roman readers would have considered it. It will also display the way that other Christian leaders from Myanmar, Romania, Ghana, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Pakistan evaluate submission to the government. An afterword provides a way forward for Western Christians in this time period.
