@WellsJorda89710 God’s purpose for you was to learn from that experience so you’d be prepared for what He had designed next for you.

Perfectly said. I remember the absolute heartbreak I felt for someone I’d never met. I prayed he was somehow still alive while knowing the odds were impossible. Then came the “whys.” I’m still asking many of them.

I remember the day Charlie Kirk was assassinated.

I remember seeing that video.

I remember begging Jesus to spare his life. Please God. PLEASE. Over and over.

I remember thinking- this can’t be real.

Not Charlie.

He is the best of us.

A man of peace and faith.

Who believed we could change hearts with truth, and because our ideas are better.

And that hateful deviant killed him.

Because he didn’t like what Charlie said.

They couldn’t allow Charlie to speak- because he was effective. And they hated him for it.

I feel sick. I can’t believe it’s almost been a year.

I miss Charlie.

I know he’s with God. I KNOW that.

But selfishly, I wish we still had him here with us.

Something is happening to me this Independence Day. It’s just hitting different.

I’m guilty. I’ve taken what this country has provided me for granted. I’ve been lulled into this false belief that this 1-in-a-million experiment will endure forever no matter what. That’s simply not true.

“A Republic, if you can keep it.”

Those words from Benjamin Franklin have been ringing in my ears all week.

The default of the human experience has not been individual liberty and faith in the promises of the living God. Our ancestors blazed that trail. Now, we must accept that no one is coming to save us.

We are the ones you’ve been waiting for. Our children and grandchildren will inherit the future we create for them TODAY.

No blackpilling. We are the United States of Dadgum America. We’ve faced worse odds and came out ahead. Why should this time be any different?

No more apathy. The next 250 years of the American experiment is on our shoulders. Let’s make it even better than the last.

GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

If you want to understand where a society is headed, look at what it values. If you want to understand what shapes those values, look at where it places its faith.

With some people (and pastors) objecting, I want to explain really quick why this week's LIVE FREE episode (and social media) is unashamedly about the United States.

I love my King of Kings more infinitely than any earthly ruler.
And there is an Eternal Kingdom that has infinitely more allegiance from me than any earthly country.

But...

In the Bible, God established 3 institutions for the good of the world:

– The Family
– The church
– The State (governments)

This means that a Christian man should seek to be...

- A family man
- A churchman
- A statesman

This week, we'll celebrate the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, and part of being a "statesman" is loving your country.

- A family never gets better unless the father LOVES his family.
- A church never gets better unless people LOVE their church
- A nation cannot get better unless people LOVE their nation

So, I do unapologetically love my country, thank God for the historically unique way Christianity played a role in the founding of our nation, and I'll have a BLAST this week unapologetically and enthusiastically celebrating it and working for its future good... not IN SPITE of the fact that I'm a Christian, but BECAUSE I'm a Christian, who is grateful to God for what He has done in the past and imploring Him to pour out his Spirit in our culture for the good of its future... and then I'm going to walk in this weekend and preach verse by verse through Exodus 3 and make Jesus real famous.

"But seek the welfare of the [nation] where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare."
– Jeremiah 29:7

NAILED IT: The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh: “Today's ruling will directly lead to TENS of MILLIONS more foreigners flooding into this country, most of whom will have multiple children who will be entitled to a slice of your paycheck.”

“Most of them will not even attempt to assimilate, which is why large portions of California now resemble Mexico. Why 30% of New Yorkers can't speak English. Why Somali run entire neighborhoods in Minneapolis.”

“None of this is lawful.”

A truly HORRIFC DAY for America!

🚨 @elonmusk is right. Mass immigration without assimilation isn’t compassion, it’s civilizational suicide.

When millions pour in refusing to adopt our values and demanding we bend to theirs, they’re not immigrants, they’re colonizers. Europe and Dearborn show us the nightmare: parallel societies, Sharia courts, no-go zones.

This suicidal empathy will erase our culture and freedoms. Immigration without assimilation is invasion!

BREAKING: Justice Clarence Thomas pens a scathing dissent after the Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship.

Thomas accuses the majority of “repurposing” the 14th Amendment “to protect its own set of preferred rights that the Reconstruction Congress never contemplated and that cannot find support in its text.”

“Today, the Court does so again by recognizing a constitutional right to citizenship for the children of all foreign birth tourists and illegal aliens.”

“I am not sure that today’s opinion will stand the test of time. The Citizenship Clause ‘added greatly to the dignity and glory of American citizenship.’ Today’s opinion devalues that citizenship.”

“I respectfully dissent.”

We didn’t need 60 votes to bring in 50 million illegals.

Why do we need 60 votes to send them home?
