What if the turmoil we see among nations today is not just political failure, but the result of humanity rejecting the order of God?

Lands were not meant to be seized by prideful ambition, and history was not meant to be driven…
America is not just facing political trouble, economic pressure, or cultural confusion. We are facing a spiritual crisis.

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…
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?
