While at 43 I likely no longer fit the description of "young evangelical voter," I did find this article extremely encouraging as I (and you) are faced with living a Kingdom life as a follower of Christ in these days.
Whether you voted for Obama or not, may we seek to move into this new time in history with this mindset:
"Yes, we voted. But it’s more than that. Through this election, we’ve become aware of the major social issues of our day. And now we want to do something about them. We recognize an election will not change everything. We do not rest our hopes for change on a political party or candidate. We vote, we hope, but we don’t stop there. Tomorrow and the next day and the next and in January when Obama takes office, we get up and we continue our sojourn to follow Jesus. We live our votes for life, for justice, for peace, for equality."
