    What do we need to do help turn America around? There is no magic solution to save America. To save America we must save ourselves and others. 1- We must repent 2- We must pray 3- We must trust 4- We must evangelize

    A message of encouragement to remind us that salvation through Christ provides us with a living hope for today as well as for our future.
