This year marks the 250th anniversary of America, a milestone that invites both gratitude and reflection. There is much to celebrate: the endurance of a nation, the sacrifices of generations, the ideals of liberty, and the hope that has drawn people to this land. Yet anniversaries are not only moments for celebration; they are also moments for honest examination. As…
America doesn’t need more division — America needs a shared purpose. We hear a lot about the Republican agenda and the Democrat agenda. But maybe it’s time we ask a bigger question: what about an American agenda? Not an agenda for one party. Not an agenda that divides neighbors, families, and communities. An agenda for all Americans — the people…
America is standing at a crossroads — and what comes next depends on us. After this presidency, the country could feel more divided, tired, and unsure. But it could also become more awake, more involved, and more serious about fixing what is broken. People are worried about real things: the cost of living, jobs, health care, safety, immigration, and whether…
In a democracy, law is supposed to be the set of rules that applies to everyone, and justice is supposed to be the promise that those rules are fair. Courts exist to protect that promise. They are meant to make sure that no president, governor, legislature, or powerful group can simply do whatever it wants. That is why recent Supreme…
“Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; love and faithfulness go before you.” (Ps. 89.14) We cannot heal a broken nation with broken standards. The hour is too serious for shallow words and religious slogans. If justice is separated from God’s righteousness, it becomes whatever people in power declare it to be. And when that happens, the weak…

And democracy should mean that ordinary people have a real voice and real ways to defend their rights. That is why recent Supreme Court decisions about presidential power, immigration, and voting rights matter so much. These rulings may sound…
Over the past several years, I have carried a deep burden in my spirit. I have shared parts of it in blog posts, in prayer, and in conversations with people who are willing to listen. The burden is this: the Church must remember who we are. We are not called to be a political machine. We are not called to…
In 2022, I sensed that the shaking in America was not over. In fact, it seemed to be intensifying. Whatever could be shaken was being shaken—our democracy, our institutions, our understanding of truth, our conversations about race, our politics, and even the way many people talked about faith. Hebrews 12 reminds us that shaking reveals what is temporary and what…
America is not just facing political trouble, economic pressure, or cultural confusion. We are facing a spiritual crisis. We are watching truth collapse, evil spread, families break, violence rise, and hearts grow cold. At the root of it all is this sobering reality: we have rejected the knowledge of God and turned away from His ways. Scripture says, “My people…
