One Nation Under God: Rediscovering America's Divine Purpose in Unity

Image
 From Pastor Steve Smothermon Think about the Pledge of Allegiance, especially where it says, One nation under God. A beacon of light: Scripture teaches in Amos 3:3 How can two walk together unless they be agreed? God brought people from every nation of the world to make and create America — a place that would be a beacon of light to the world that God is real and that He sent Jesus to save us; a light that other nations would envy; a light that when a nation honors God, He will cause it, them to prosper; a nation like no other nation; one nation under God; “one nation.”

On June 29, 1776, pivotal events unfolded in the burgeoning United States that would resonate through history, marking the transition of Virginia into an independent powerhouse with its first constitution. The Virginia Convention, fueled by the spirit of revolution, formally adopted this critical document, which would become a cornerstone for governance in the new Commonwealth of Virginia.

Remembering the Magic of M.E. Moses: A Journey Back to the Heart of Main Street, Vernon

Image
One of my favorite stores from the past was the M.E. Moses Five and Dime Store on Main Street in Vernon, Texas . For those of you who are too young to remember, a "Five and Dime" store was an old-fashioned discount store where most items cost around five or ten cents. Of course, you would have to travel way back in time to find those kinds of bargains—much further back than my memories from the mid-1970s. Back then, the only thing you could buy for a dime was a piece of hard candy. A comic book cost thirty cents, and a gallon of gas was sixty cents. To put this into perspective, today a comic book is about four dollars, and depending on where you are in the country, gasoline can range from two to four dollars a gallon.
