We will never have proper race relations until we recognize the fundamental role of God, try as we might with programs, laws, textbooks, pundits and cable news town halls After all, He is the Creator of us all. If we have a common Father, then we are all brothers and sisters. It doesn’t mean that we are all exactly alike, but that we are all family—and are all equal. When that perspective takes hold in the life of a believer, differences between us become something to celebrate, never to...

The same way as the Founders lived: relying on God and looking to His truths as the basis for our laws and for our behavior, as the only true foundation for successful living. But I want to make a distinction which may not sit well with some fellow...
This is an important question, and it has several facets, each of which is worthy of reflection. For the moment I’d like to focus on whether this is a Christian nation in the sense that it is supposed to be one, or at least was one in the beginning.
