Rediscovering The Declaration of Independence
LISTENNOW! John shares how he went to Philadelphia to discover and appreciate the birth place of America. He shares his visit to Independence Hall and the house where Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence. He reads the Declaration of Independence and shares insight on why the American Colonies were resolute in declaring their freedom from the tyranny of the King of Great Britain. He also encourages Americans to reflect and think about those who have gone before us and the courage of a few men who stood up, spoke out, and who fought so that many Americans can enjoy the freedom they now possess. They share a quote form Tony Evans that says, “When one nation under God becomes one nation apart from God expect the consequences.” America can still be a city on a hill and stand for freedom and liberty but we can’t do it apart from God.
