Partners and Citizens is a dynamic forum committed to illuminating the intricate intersections between missions and politics for Christians. Recognizing the primary mission of Christians as the missio dei and their ultimate citizenship as belonging to heaven, the forum invites reflection on how these defining characteristics should profoundly influence our political perspectives and actions.

The typical expression of opening Friendship would be something like, 'What? You too? I thought I was the only one.'…But as long as each of these percipient persons dies without finding a kindred soul, nothing (I suspect) will come of it; art or sport or spiritual religion will not be born. It is when two such persons discover one another, when, whether with immense difficulties and semi-articulate fumblings or what would seem to us amazing and elliptical speed, they share their vision—it is then that Friendship is born. And instantly they stand together in immense solitude." — C.S. Lewis
