government

"Put simply, the governments of today seem incapable of offering both representative and effective governance. And ordinary citizens have had enough."

Many are saying that American democracy is slipping away. Here is what we need to teach the next generation in order to preserve our nation:

Senate Rep. Jamie Raskin contended that Trump “engaged in high crimes and misdemeanors by inciting violence against the government of the United States.” The Senate trial is currently scheduled to take place on Feb. 9.

In a follow-up letter to the Department of Defense, Sen. Ted Cruz is calling on the Department of Defense to end internal discrimination against religious persons.

In a 90-second prayer, Senate Chaplain Barry Black asked God to restore the souls of U.S. congresspeople. The Chaplain referenced Psalm 23 amid a turbulent season on Capitol Hill.

In 2012, when a “Family Guy” episode aired depicting character Peter Griffith having a stroke, $150 million in federal grants went to embryo-destructive research. Despite all the funding dedicated to embryo-destructive research, embryonic stem cells had not yielded a single viable treatment by 2012, but adult stem cells had.

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez successfully grabbed another headline last week by tweeting that Americans should have a “real conversation” about abolishing prisons. Though she did later walk back this bone-toss to her far-left supporters, the prison abolition movement isn’t as niche as you’d think.

Thanks to a court ruling, a representative of the make-believe Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster led prayer at a government meeting in Alaska this week.

God has given us a wonderful gift known as America. The government isn't bad or good; her people determine success or failure. Why would God ordain our government and then not want us to steward His gift? Many have been guilty of not getting involved by saying, “We shouldn't say or do anything political. All we need to do is preach the gospel.” Be careful . . . although the gospel is our primary focus, this shouldn’t be an excuse against action.
