Is America a Christian Nation?

In light of President Obama's comments lately that America is no longer a "Christian nation", David Barton of Wallbuilders gave an incredible presentation at Charles Stanley's church (Is America A Christian Nation?) most fittingly on July 4th and he addressed this topic. If you haven't heard David speak, I encourage you to take a few minutes and listen to this presentation...it will enlighten you in the least and hopefully challenge you to be like our founding fathers and engage in our culture, die to selfish desires and fight for freedom!

Is Freedom Free?

The founding fathers restated this phrase over and over...rights and responsibility. What are our unalienable rights and what is our responsibility or our duty? Freedom is NEVER free. There is a price to pay to live in the land of the free and the home of the brave. What is this cost? Ultimately some paid this price with their LIFE. We live in the land of the free BECAUSE of the brave.

This blog is dedicated to all those men and women who sacrificially gave. They gave their time, their energy, their money and some ultimately gave their lives for you and me...to enjoy this GIFT of freedom. What are we doing to preserve this ultimate sacrifice? Do we sit idly by and watch others lead and guide our futures or do we take the time and energy to get involved? Do we take the time to write a simple letter, send a quick email, relay a text or make a fast phone call to our ELECTED officials who are their FOR us? Or are we like so many that are too busy to engage our culture and fulfill our sense of duty to both our country and more importantly, to our God? I pray you would engage in the battle that is in front of us now...the battle for our very freedom is under attack. May we be found as selfless as all those who preceded us to make this country GREAT!

Truth or Fiction

Wanted to share this link with you called Truth or Fiction. This is a good source to check out many of the stories we all get via email and we are not quite sure if we can believe them, yet alone forward them on to find out our information was bad or worse yet, wrong. There is the site called "Snopes" that many of you know about, but "Snopes" is staffed by a liberal couple who filter all conclusions toward their very liberal bias. Not a great source for conservatives.

Here are a few other great sites to visit to check the accuracy of all those emails: Urban Legends, Fact Check and About.com is under the tab Current Hoaxes & Legends.
