    The song says, “God bless America, land that I love…” I’m convinced that God has blessed America. But the Bible teaches that to whom much is given, much is expected. If so, then God must expect a lot from America.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK REVISED - 2015) This Wednesday will be Veterans’ Day.

    Freedom never comes easy nor is it free. We need to remember those who paid dearly for our liberty. We must remember both the sacrifices they made and also the ultimate sacrifice that He made to set us free.
