Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spoke out about God and politics to Daystar’s Joni Lamb and Doug Weiss in a recent episode of “Ministry Now.”

After RFK Jr.’s step away from the presidential race and endorsement of Donald Trump, he is now speaking about the necessity of unity during this time, and how his upbringing in faith has made a difference in his worldview.

“First of all, I was raised in a very, very Catholic family and I integrated that into my thought, into my soul,” RFK Jr. says. “We prayed the rosary everyday, sometimes on multiple occasions, we went to church almost everyday…we prayed before and after meals, we prayed the rosary at night, we read the Bible every night. my dad read the Bible to me, so I know that was part of who I was growing up.”

RFK says that for years faith was not part of his lifestyle during his battle with a heroin addiction. However, he had a spiritual awakening which turned everything around for him. He wanted to change and he knew it would take a miracle to see his life turned around for the better.

“I made an intellectual decision, ‘I’m going to start believing in God,'” Kennedy says. “Then I’m faced with the dilemma that everybody who makes that commitment has, which is how do you start believing in something that you can’t see or smell or touch or taste or acquire with your senses?…you act as if and that the compliance will precede the evidence. You will see the evidence and it will be overwhelming.”

Weiss and Lamb make the point that turning to God is all about living a life of surrender.

“It’s like a surrender of the heart and connecting to the One who created you,” Lamb says.

Lamb herself has learned much about surrendering to God’s plans and purposes even when they don’t seem to make sense. She discovered that He is the only One who can carry you through life’s storms. After her late husband, Marcus Lamb, passed away, she had to trust God that He would bring her through the unexpected grief and heartache. Since then, Lamb has seen God move mightily in her life personally and through Daystar.

Kennedy also talked about the need to fix issues in America that are hurting the health of our citizens.

“We have the worst health of any country in the world,” Kennedy says. “We have the best integrative medicine, doctors and functional medicine doctors, naturopaths, and you know all these people who are doing extraordinary work to restore, to obliterate or to end chronic disease…we can solve all these issues, but there’s no way we can solve them when we’re all tearing each other apart, when we’re all hating on each other.

“When Abraham Lincoln said a house divided cannot stand, and if we can figure out a way to stop the vitriol and stop the anger and the polarization and the demonization and the name calling and start identifying values that we all have in common as Americans, rather than focusing on those little issues that keep us apart, we can solve any of these problems,” he continues.

Uniting the house together instead of dividing it and separating it is one the basic principles Jesus taught us. For Christians, it is our job as the body of Christ to see the importance of all parts of Christ’s body, just as Paul reminds us to do so. This is vital in a world riddled with censorship around every turn.
