4th of July and 6 Powerful Words We Need in a Candidate

Posted on by

This coming Saturday, we will celebrate the 239th birthday of the United States. It is far more than just the anniversary of an event in time. The opening words and the closing words of the Declaration of Independence have a powerful message for us today.

“When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”

There is a recognition that this new nation was on equal standing among the powers of the earth with any other nation on the earth. The basis of that equal standing was not something that other nations gave to them, but something to which God held the title and God gave to them.

An announcement speech reveals the major platform of a candidate and why he or she has chosen to throw a hat in the ring. I will offer a review and comparison each in two different articles.

He is Risen! I could hear many of you reading this message respond with, “He is Risen Indeed!”

Christians are sometimes called intolerant. You may be surprised to learn that I agree. Christians can be intolerant, obnoxious, bigoted, hypocritical, and a list of other appropriate adjectives to describe human behavior.

We Are Tired of It

We are tired of it. Georgians who call themselves people of faith, for the most part Christian evangelicals, are tired of it. We are tired of being labeled as hateful, prejudiced, and a host of other insults thrown at us by a minority in our state. The same ones who shout for open mindedness and diversity display close-minded, hypocritical behavior. We are tired of it.

We are tired of hearing big business and the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce raise

Muslims in Kennesaw

Posted on by

The Kennesaw City Council turned down an application from the Suffa Dawat Center to operate a prayer center in an area zoned for retail business. Several months ago in another area, the city approved similar application for a church. A city spokesperson said that the other area was zoned differently.

I oppose the decision of the city of Kennesaw. Yes, you read that correctly.
