"Soccer, it brings us together, but Jesus satisfies us all."
Former pro soccer player and Seattle Sounders chaplain Jesse Bradley says the U.S. Men's National Team's historic World Cup run is capturing attention not just because of the results, but because of the players' willingness to publicly share their faith.
The Americans have won their first two World Cup group-stage matches for the first time since 1930, sparking excitement across the country.
Bradley says the team's Bible studies, prayer gatherings, and message of unity are helping bring people together through a sport that's rapidly growing in the United States.

"I can’t believe I get to live here. Thank you, Lord," Underwood wrote on Instagram.
In 1884, Ulysses S. Grant was dying of throat cancer and was dead broke.
His money was wiped out by a swindler who stole his fortune.
Desperate to leave something for his wife, he agreed to write his Civil War memoirs and was close to signing a contract for a meager 10% royalty.
Mark Twain stepped in, called the deal robbery and offered Grant 70% of the profits through his own publishing company.
Grant raced death to finish the book, completing it just days before he died in July 1885.
It became one of the greatest memoirs ever written.
The royalties left his widow nearly half a million dollars, about $16 million today, and the book has never gone out of print.

Leftists are seriously mentally deranged!
They were ALWAYS going to try to revert it back to filth. MAJOR TDS
@GadSaad From 0-10% tax conmeasurate with wealth. Why so low? To create opportunities, wealth, investment, self sustainability & prosperity.
Government should create efficiencies & not punish it’s citizens with levies.
People are astoundingly stupid. My comments about the departure tax is not that I should be treated differently from anyone else. I am making a point about the extent to which taxes are confiscatory. As I have previously explained, there was a time when ZERO cents of income tax were levied in Canada and the US. Then bit by bit, that "temporary" measure, to be applied to only a few, and at a very low percentage rate of your income, becomes a mammoth monster that takes more than 50% of your earnings. It can occur because there are no repercussions if governments do not balance their budgets (other than voting them out). Hence, what starts off as a small temporary tax on a few becomes an existential theft that is orders of magnitude larger than the so-called illegal extortion tax of the Mafia. It can exist only because the great majority of people BENEFIT from this form of parasitic taxation. But someone has to pay for everyone else, and when you are that someone, you are not necessarily pleased to be funding the ultimate Ponzi scheme. I'm making a moral, philosophical, and ethical argument. It's not just about me.
I am asking everyone to please share this every where..
The Chief, our officers and I were actively investigating public corruption and human trafficking in our town. That included going after some of the city commissioners. We also ran a successful undercover sting targeting child predators.
Instead of supporting the investigation, those same commissioners got Phil Williams at NewsChannel 5 to come after us. He ran a smear campaign calling us conspiracy theorists and attacked our work.
That pressure led the TBI to raid our department, seize our evidence, and shut down our investigations.
If they hadn’t interfered, we could have stopped more of these crimes sooner. We sued Phil Williams, NewsChannel 5, and will be suing TBI for exactly this. Now the truth is coming out.@boonecutler@xAlphaWarriorx@AlphaWarriorTV@ninoboxer@RealCathyOBrien@LawEnforceToday@stinchfield1776@RealAmVoice

Reminder: Obama was a terrible president. Democrats pretend otherwise b/c they're compelled by their religion.
Anyway if you need a refresher, here are 700+ scandals I catalogued during his administration:

More than 250 runners are crossing the country as part of Relay for America, carrying the U.S. flag to Washington, D.C., with the goal of arriving by July 4th. Each mile of the journey is dedicated to a veteran who served our nation.
250,000 girls in the UK were raped by savage third world migrants.
Keir Starmer and every politician responsible for importing these barbaric room temperature IQ sub human criminals needs to be put in prison.
Want to hear another dark thought?
If this platform didn’t exist, nobody would know about this.
There’s no coming back from this. It’s time to go scorched earth.
Every last one of them should face the death penalty.
