This week we interviewed Matt Trewhella, a pastor from Wisconsin that is a well-known proponent of the Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate.
Here are some recommended links for further study:

- Mercy Seat Christian Church (262) 628-9169
- Macabre Magdeburg Confession
- Appellation to the Nobles of Scotland by John Knox

What can you do now? Contact your lesser magistrates! Write to them. Keep it short, make your point, don’t go over 1 page. You could even meet with your local officials!
“We need to urge our local officials to honor God, and support them in that endeavor.”
