When people look at America today, many feel uneasy. There is division, distrust, moral confusion, debt, violence, and a sense that something important has been slipping away for a long time. For Christians, that raises a serious question: if the Bible teaches that nations rise and fall, should we really be shocked that after 250 years America seems to be…
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…
We live in a time when so much is changing quickly. The world feels uncertain, noisy, and sometimes confusing. News travels fast. Technology keeps moving forward. Families, churches, and communities are facing new pressures. In moments like these, believers are called not only to notice what is happening, but to ask, “Lord, what are You saying, and how should we…
A dangerous deception has been spreading among us for generations: people claiming the name of Jesus while being formed more by politics, nationalism, and cultural power than by Christ Himself. This is not a minor drift; it is a spiritual crisis. Matthew 7:21–23 — “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven…” When loyalty…
Galatians 5:15 gives us a serious but simple warning: “If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.” That warning does not only apply to families, churches, or friendships. It also speaks to nations. When political leaders, parties, and citizens spend more time attacking one another than solving problems, the whole country…
We keep hearing that America’s biggest problem is political—that the divide is about left versus right, Democrat versus conservative. But what if that is only the surface? What if the deeper issue is not first political, but spiritual? What if the real disconnect in America is a disconnect from truth itself—and ultimately from God? Scripture gives us a sobering phrase…
Why truth, justice, and repentance matter more than religious performance During a recent rededication service, part of the Speaker of the House’s public prayer raised alarm when it condemned so-called “sinister ideologies” connected to teaching America’s history of slavery and violence. To many listeners—especially those who understand the long struggle for civil rights—that language did not sound like truth-telling. It…
From civil rights to moral panic, American political change often starts with a moral argument before it becomes a law or a movement. Why do political debates in America so often feel personal, emotional, and impossible to settle? One big reason is that many Americans do not see politics as just a fight over policy. They see it as a…
Trump’s appeal exposed a deeper American hunger for identity, belonging, and a shared future I think Donald Trump’s rise in American politics forced the country to confront a basic question that many of us have been asking for years: Who are we now? Americans want to believe their country stands for something, that its history matters, and that its future is leading…
